'Maybe this guy is going to the Raiders': Will NRL really poach Brumbies stars?

Brumbies star dismisses banter, potential NRL move for promising Super Rugby players. Olympic sevens for Nawaqanitawase.

ACT Brumbies star Tom Wright has swatted away cross-code banter as he edges closer to a Wallabies recall, brushing off the suggestion the Canberra Raiders could target Super Rugby players.

Rival clubs are fired up about the prospects of Mark Nawaqanitawase and Carter Gordon suiting up for the Sydney Roosters and Gold Coast Titans as soon as this season in the fallout of their decision to walk out on rugby and join the NRL.

Nawaqanitawase is set to go to the Olympic Games as part of Australia's sevens rugby team before linking with the Roosters, while Gordon has been overlooked by Joe Schmidt as the new Wallabies coach plans for the future.
