  • Raiders play waiting game for Panthers prop

    Moses Leota

    Canberra, Gold Coast, Parramatta, and Roosters are pursuing Moses Leota, pending Penrith's negotiations.

    Wide World of Sports

    Canberra, Gold Coast, Parramatta and the Roosters are playing a waiting game with Penrith's front-row colossus Moses Leota.

    The four-time premiership-winner was given permission by the Panthers to test the market last month - but not to sign anywhere.

    Leota's management met with the Panthers this week and reported back that the four clubs are all keen to sign the tough prop for 2028.

    Penrith have put any talks with Leota, who has missed just seven games in the last six years, on hold until they sort out the futures of marquee men Nathan Cleary and Isaah Yeo, who are also unsigned beyond the end of next season.

    Warriors circle Raiders' centre as Canberra picks up a Bulldog

    The Australian

    Raiders centre Seb Kris could be on the move with the Warriors circling the Kiwi international.

    Kris has 12 months left on his contract with Canberra but they won't stand in his way if he can find a long-term elsewhere. The Warriors have emerged as a potential suitor for the 27-year-old as the club tries to boost its centre spot given Roger Tuivasa-Sheck moving to the Super League at the end of the season.

    Kris, who played one Test for New Zealand in 2022, has struggled to keep his spot in the top grade this year despite being a mainstay of the Raiders side in the past six seasons. He has been swapped to the wing, played off the bench and at NSW Cup at times this year.

    While Kris may be on the way-out, the Raiders have stolen one of the Bulldogs' own after landing man mountain Lipoi Hopoi to help with their premiership push next season.

    The 24-year-old Hopoi has made 17 appearances for the 'Dogs since making is debut two years ago.
