NRL NOVEMBER 1 MARKET PREVIEW | Footy in Focus
2026/10/27
The NRL player market is heating up - and Sam Walker’s future has been thrown wide open! 💰🔥
Isaac Issa, Kat Haddad and special guest Tyson Jackson bring you a massive November 1 market preview on Footy in Focus, starting with the Roosters’ shock decision to withdraw their contract offer to Walker.
We work through the market position by position, sharing the latest mail, discussing potential destinations and debating which players clubs should prioritise.
On the agenda:
🏉 Sam Walker’s next move and what it means for the Roosters
💰 The big decisions surrounding Nathan Cleary, Cameron Munster and Harry Grant
👀 Hudson Young’s future after Canberra withdrew their offer
📝 The biggest names, emerging talents and underrated targets
🔄 How the PNG Chiefs and Perth Bears could shape recruitment
Who should YOUR club target from November 1? Let us know in the comments! 👇
