    With his contract ending next season, Hudson Young has taken the opportunity to discuss his future publicly.

    As new teams like the Perth Bears and PNG Chiefs enter the league and seek star players, the Canberra Raiders are acting swiftly to ensure Young doesn't explore free agency.

    In May, it was reported that discussions for a long-term contract were underway, but over a month later, the 27-year-old has shared his thoughts.

    "I'm not too sure where my management and the club are at, but I let them take over that," Young remarked in an interview with The Canberra Times.

    Brisbane Broncos dummy half Billy Walters has revealed that he is currently engaged in discussions regarding his future with the club, though he remains uncertain about staying at Red Hill.

    After suffering an ACL injury during a qualifying final against the Canberra Raiders last year, Walters missed the remainder of the finals series but is expected to return to play in the coming weeks.

    His contract is set to expire at the end of 2026, making each game a crucial assessment of his market value moving forward.

    It has been widely speculated that the Broncos may face challenges in retaining Walters due to their salary cap situation, which already includes multiple lucrative contracts.

    Raiders' star player Simi Sasagi faces a month out, complicating their NRL season while struggling for playoff contention.

    The Canberra Times

    This is not what Canberra Raiders fans want to hear.

    Their best player of the 2026 NRL season is set to spend another month on the sidelines, especially when they're 14th on the NRL ladder and two wins outside the eight.

    That's the update provided by Raiders centre Matt Timoko ahead of the Green Machine's crunch clash against the Eels in Parramatta on Saturday.

    The Raiders will be without NSW duo Hudson Young and Ethan Strange, and Savelio Tamale (concussion), plus Timoko said Simi Sasagi (shoulder) was still a distance away from return.
