Bailey Simonsson is desperate to force his way into the Canberra Raiders' starting side as clouds hover over the Green Machine's right edge. Jordan Rapana is exploring a stint in Japanese rugby but said a return to the Raiders could be on the cards in the aftermath of the club's heartbreaking NRL grand final defeat. His inside man in right centre Joey Leilua is exploring his options with Raiders officials content to let him go elsewhere should a rival club come knocking with an attractive offer. It comes as Canberra five-eighth Jack Wighton reportedly knocked back his option on a contract extension beyond the 2020 season in a bid to capitalise on his rising stock. Wighton is edging closer to his Australian debut having already claimed the Clive Churchill Medal in the grand final and donned a NSW Blues jersey this year.
