We love the mighty Canberra Raiders
Canberra Raiders halfback Jamal Fogarty is reportedly set to test the open market from November 1.
Fogarty relocated to the Raiders from the Gold Coast Titans ahead of the 2022 season on a three-year deal, with Justin Holbrook at the time giving him his release so that young talent and a reformed spine could leave the Robina-based club into the future.
Meanwhile, the Raiders were desperate for a seven and landed Fogarty, who then proceeded to miss the first half of 2022 with injury.
Jack Wighton has reportedly told the South Sydney Rabbitohs he is committed to the club after rumours surfaced in the last week that he was considering a backflip.
Wighton almost immediately took to social media to trash the rumour, but given players have done similar previously, the rumour appeared to still carry some weight in rugby league circles.
But according to News Corp, Wighton has now officially put the rumour to bed, texting South Sydney chief executive officer Blake Solly to confirm he will indeed be making the move to Redfern in 2024.
Juggling injuries and suspension, the Canberra Raiders' finals berth can be sealed in the final match of the NRL season on Sunday with victory against Cronulla, but there is still a scenario where they can lose and make the top eight.
The Raiders' famously poor points differential (now minus 119) puts them in a dangerous seventh spot on the NRL ladder, equal on 32 points with sixth-placed Cronulla.
Newcastle's win over the Sharks on Sunday sealed their finals berth with 33 points, regardless of the result of their last-round game against the Dragons next Saturday.
