Calls have grown louder for Jack Wighton to end his contract circus and make a final decision on his future after a sub-par performance against the Dragons in Round 7.
The 31-year-old announced his shock retirement from representative football on Tuesday after a total of 17 games for NSW and Australia.
Meanwhile, Wighton has a huge call to make after he informed the Canberra club he would be hitting the open market with both the Raiders and Dolphins in the running for his signature.

Wighton reveals potential contract timeline for decision
Canberra Raiders star Jack Wighton says he will make a decision on his next contract move within two weeks, revealing his decision to quit representative duties was to boost his chances of winning an NRL premiership.
Wighton has been the talk of the rugby league world for the past month after first announcing his decision to test his value on the open market and then withdrawing himself from State of Origin selection contention.
But the good news is Wighton might be nearing an end to the constant speculation as he weighs up a $4 million offer from the Raiders or a move to another club.
Cotric set to miss Dolphins clash as Stuart ponders reshuffle
Nick Cotric is set to miss the Canberra Raiders' trip to Wagga Wagga with a hamstring injury forcing coach Ricky Stuart into another outside back reshuffle.
The injury has kept Cotric to three appearances this season, and the 24-year-old lasted just 54 minutes before leaving the field in a win over St George Illawarra on Sunday.
Raiders officials will not put a return date on Cotric until he returns to club headquarters early next week following Canberra's bye this weekend.
