One of rugby league’s worst kept secrets was confirmed last November when Melbourne’s premiership-winning centre Curtis Scott signed a four-year deal with Canberra.Having only played nine games for the Storm last year, the 22-year-old had a forgettable 2019.

His form became inconsistent and he was relegated to Queensland Cup during a period that he described as a “time in my life where things weren’t going the best.

Some said it was impossible. The mere mention of Todd Carney's name still sends some Canberra Raiders fans into a meltdown. But after all the pain, controversies and "what ifs", could the prodigal son be coming home? Raiders skipper Jarrod Croker is on board. A group of Raiders fans have launched a petition to bring Carney out of retirement for the NRL Nines, which will be played in Perth on February 14. More than 250 people have already pledged their support, but whether it gathers enough momentum to become a genuine option remains to be seen.

Raiders speedster Bailey Simonsson plans to avoid "second-year syndrome" as he attempts to secure the wing jersey vacated by Jordan Rapana.

Simonsson impressed despite being shuffled around the backline in 21 games last season. That included a spot on the interchange bench in the grand final.

He represented New Zealand in the World Cup 9s at season's end and was included in the Kiwis' extended Test squad.

Joey Leilua's happy in Canberra, but whether he stays with the Raiders will come down to what the Wests Tigers offer. Leilua's contracted to the Green Machine for 2020, but he's been given permission his explore his options with the club unable to fit him into the 2021 salary cap. He's facing a battle to hold on to his spot at right centre after he was given extra leave to get married in Samoa late last year. Plus the Raiders recruited former Melbourne Storm centre Curtis Scott, who has already formed a combination - both on and off the field - with Raiders winger Nick Cotric. Wests are circling Leilua after missing out on landing Latrell Mitchell, who jumped ship from the Sydney Roosters to arch rivals South Sydney.

Nick Cotric will sit down with Canberra Raiders hierarchy next week, with the Australian international keen to win an NRL title for his hometown team. His co-captain Jarrod Croker is also in discussions with his next contract potentially ensuring he sees out his record-breaking career with the Green Machine. The Canberra Times revealed back in November they were two of the off-contract players the Raiders wanted to lock down before the season starts. Cotric grew up dreaming of playing in lime green and he's been a sensation since he made that dream come true at the start of the 2017 campaign. He's gone on to not only play 70 NRL games but represent both NSW and Australia as well.
