Contract silly season about to begin

Post by greeneyed »

Contract silly season about to begin: Which Canberra Raiders are off contract as of November 1

CANBERRA RAIDERS

Off-contract: Brad Abbey, Luke Bateman, Setefano Hala, Ata Hingano, Liam Knight, Jordan Rapana, Sam Williams.

New Zealand Test winger Jordan Rapana will be Canberra’s priority signing, despite having a rocky 2018 campaign. Young Kiwi playmaker Ata Hingano finds himself on the back foot to secure a new deal after copping a six-month shoulder injury in pre-season, giving journeyman Sam Williams a chance to impress.

Our record has the club with an option in its favour for Brad Abbey for 2020.

Also have Emre Guler, Corey Horsburgh off contract at the end of 2019...

Last details for Makahesi Makatoa are that his contract ends 2018, no contract details for Royce Hunt. Unclear also for Paul Roache and Seb Kris. Believe Josh Saunders and Sitiveni Moceidreke are Mounties contracted.

If you see any errors and omissions in our list, let us know:

You'd want to make sure you have Guler, Horsburgh, Kris and Hala signed up, if they're not already.

Happy not to re-sign Bateman, Abbey, Hingano and Roache. Happy to let Hunt and Makatoa go too. Sam Williams on third string half money. If any of those are re-signed it'd have to be on minimum contract dollars (Sam Williams aside).

It's a nice change from last year to have such a short list.

I thought Roache was coming along nicely?

I can’t see him making a regular first grader myself. He goes missing in games and is not holding down a regular position in junior grades.

Then again... I wasn’t concerned about losing Brent Kite either... and he proved me well and truly wrong.

I'd only re-sign Rapa, Horsburgh and Guler in that order to first grade contracts ( if the last two are really still off contract). The rest have to earn a deal or go elsewheee.

Haven’t seen anything in Hala that would make him a priority.

Lots of potential in Hala. Props take time to mature.
