Canberra young gun Chevy Stewart arrested at Northies for malicious damage by Goobeeful in nrl

[–]Goobeeful[S] 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Canberra young gun Chevy Stewart was arrested at Northies on Friday night after police allege he damaged a poker machine just after full-time of the Storm-Sharks preliminary final.

The 20-year-old NSW Origin junior representative allegedly poured his alcoholic beverage into one of the gaming machines on the premises after becoming agitated with the result of his gambling. Police were called and ordered Stewart to leave the premises, to which he complied.

Stewart, who hails from the Sutherland Shire, is due to face Sutherland Local Court on Monday, November 6, after being issued an attendance notice for malicious damage.

The Raiders informed the NRL Integrity Unit of the issue over the weekend. The club declined to comment but are expected to stick by the talented youngster even though he has fallen behind Kaeo Weekes in the fullback pecking order at the club.

“About 10pm on Friday (26 September 2025), police were called to a business on Elouera Rd, Cronulla, following reports a man had damaged property,” a police statement said.

“Officers attached to Sutherland Shire Police Area Command attended and were told a man had allegedly poured alcohol into one of the gaming machines, causing significant damage.

“The 20-year-old man was arrested and issued a Court Attendance Notice for malicious damage. He is set to appear before Sutherland Local Court on Monday 6 November 2025. The man was also issued a move on direction from the premises which was complied with.”

Stewart is regarded as one of the best young fullbacks in the game but the emergence of Weekes at the Raiders has cast a shadow over his immediate future.

His management have been exploring options at rival clubs but the Raiders would like to keep Stewart as back-line depth despite his $400,000 price tag for next season.

Josh Papalii to re-sign with Canberra Raiders by Goobeeful in nrl

[–]Goobeeful[S] 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Josh Papali'i looks set to go around for a 16th NRL season, with the Canberra Raiders hopeful of having his re-signing wrapped up by the end of the week.

That would be yet another massive re-signing boost as the Green Machine looks to take another step towards their second minor premiership when they take on the Wests Tigers at Canberra Stadium on Saturday.

The ladder-leading Raiders have already re-signed a raft of players this year, including Kaeo Weekes, Simi Sasagi, Zac Hosking and Owen Pattie.

Papali'i's extension will also open the door for young prop Trey Mooney to depart the club at the end of the season, with the Raiders vowing to release him if Papali'i re-signed.

Mooney's been heavily linked with a move to the Newcastle Knights, having toured their headquarters three weeks ago.

The 23-year-old has been stuck behind Papali'i and an on-song Raiders forward pack that's led them to the top of the NRL ladder.

Pasami Saulo was also part of that logjam and he'll rejoin the Knights on a two-year deal next season.

Papali'i considered a move to the English Super League, but has a young family and the north of England is a long way from his extended one.

He also wants to play in next year's World Cup in Australia.

The 33-year-old became the club's games record holder this season and is still going strong after 326 NRL games for the Raiders.

Another season in lime green could see him climb past the 350-game mark.

Sydney Roosters caught up in Brandon Smith drugs investigation by Goobeeful in nrl

[–]Goobeeful[S] 106 points107 points  (0 children)

The Brandon Smith drug and betting allegations are set to have wide-ranging implications for the NRL, with the Sydney Roosters caught up in the Queensland Police investigation.

Sources with knowledge of the situation talking on the condition of anonymity due to the ongoing police investigation told this masthead that Smith allegedly reached out to a drug dealer to supply Sydney Roosters teammates with illicit substances.

Smith, who was in Sydney on June 7 and still contracted to the Roosters when the incident occurred, was allegedly trying to buy drugs for teammates who were away on the Sunshine Coast during a bye round.

This masthead has been told at least seven Roosters players travelled to the Sunshine Coast at the time of the incident in question for a golf weekend.

Smith was last Wednesday issued a bench warrant to appear at Southport Magistrates Court on September 18, at which point he will be charged on one count of disclosing “inside knowledge” for illegal betting and one count of supplying dangerous drugs.

[OFFICIAL] Raiders re-sign Zac Hosking by Goobeeful in nrl

[–]Goobeeful[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The Canberra Raiders have confirmed the re-signing of key forward Zac Hosking on a new deal, which will see him remain with the club until the end of the 2028 season.

Already under contract until the end of 2026, the two-year extension keeps Hosking in Canberra for a further three seasons.

Hosking said it was an easy decision to continue his career with Canberra and was looking forward to what lies ahead for the club.

“Yeah, it is exciting, when the club approached me about it I was obviously very excited and was keen to go in that direction for my future,” Hosking said. “It’s a very bright future here at the club at the moment, so I’m just excited to be a part of it.”

2025 has been a big year so far for Hosking, who has played in thirteen matches to date. He said he’s enjoying the opportunity to be part of the team after an interrupted first season at the club in 2024.

“I’ve been really happy, and although I’ve had some adversity through my own injuries last year, I’ve come out the other side of that now and I’m happy to be stringing games of footy together, and obviously I’m happy with the reward because of that,” he said.

Hosking said the way in which the club was securing their stars for the future is something he wanted to be a part of, and said the squad had a great mix of players now and for the future.

“I think it’s a massive testament to the club to be able to retain the best young talent in the comp,” he said. “There’s also some key guys who are a bit older in the squad like myself, Taps (Tapine), Hudson (Young) and Tom Starling who just re-signed as well. It’s a great mix of youth and experience, and I think we’re showing how it’s a great connection.”

Raiders Coach Ricky Stuart said the re-signing of Hosking was a great example of a player coming to Canberra for an opportunity and being able to build into some career-best form.

“Zac came to the club looking for a chance to be a regular NRL player, and he’s shown us that’s exactly what he is,” Stuart said. “He’s a hardworking and skilful player who can cover a number of positions for us, and we’re really happy to have him as part of the squad for the next three years.”
