The Raiders are negotiating player contracts while reshaping their roster for future seasons.
The Canberra Raiders are in discussions with a utility player as they prepare for the future and are set to meet with the management of two forwards as November 1 approaches.
According to zerotackle.com, the Raiders have been undergoing a significant roster overhaul in recent years, adding promising young talent and letting go of veterans such as Jack Wighton and Jordan Rapana.
Amid ongoing speculation about front-rower Josh Papalii's future and whether he will remain in Canberra for another season, the club is looking to secure three players to prevent rival teams, including the Perth Bears, from acquiring them.
In an interview with The Canberra Times, CEO Don Furner stated, "the Raiders are currently in talks with Simi Sasagi to extend him on a two-year contract until the end of the 2028 NRL season." Additionally, Furner indicated that the Raiders will soon meet with Ata Mariota and Morgan Smithies' management as they continue to develop their roster for the upcoming seasons.
