    Hudson Young is set to consider a four-year, $4.4 million deal according to The Sydney Morning Herald, as the Raiders look to keep him locked in long-term.

    Young's contract has been a hot topic after he was linked with the PNG Chiefs, but complications arose around what the incoming franchise was prepared to offer.

    PNG were reportedly set to table a deal worth $900,000 per year which would have enabled Young to earn more than what he's on at the Raiders due to tax-free concessions at the club.

    However, the Chiefs were told if they wanted the Origin star they needed to offer his market value of $1.1 million. Since then, the interest has cooled, with the Raiders now in the box-seat to retain the back-rower.

    St Helens has made Canberra hooker Tom Starling its priority for a major squad reshuffle ahead of Kevin Walters' arrival as head coach in 2027, according to The i Paper.

    Starling has reportedly begun discussions with Walters' Super League team, while Canterbury Bulldogs playmaker Sean O'Sullivan has already agreed to join under the incoming coach.

    Manly had previously shown interest, with a player swap considered possible, but salary-cap constraints mean the Sea Eagles must create room or offer an equivalent player.

    Manly believe Starling can still contribute at NRL level despite losing his starting role at Canberra.
