2026 Panthers Contract Thread

Brian To’o ⮕ PNG Chiefs (2028)

Sad to see him go; my favorite player. But good luck to him. I also suspect come 2028 he might have reached his best before date.

Agree, AlbertRoss. It’s always sad to see one of our players leave, especially one like To’o, who has contributed so much to the team, and been so selfless in his commitment to the club.

Having said that, it’s not really a surprise, it’s been touted for months, and will free up some cash to (hopefully) retain others.

And we’ve still got him for the remainder of this year, and 2027.

Good luck and best wishes to Brian To’o and his family. I hope they’re happy at the Chiefs, and they pay him $hitloads of money.

A disappointing but not unexpected announcement. He will always be revered as one of our clubs greats.

Based on this season however, by 2028 his best years may well be behind him.

Toby Crosby ⮕ Warrington Wolves (2027)

Shame about Crosby, I had big hopes for him. With Henry leaving, there might have been a spot in first grade for him next year.

Anyway, good luck to him.

I see we’ve signed Liam LeBlanc from the Bunnies. Don’t know much about him, but fingers crossed he’ll be a good buy.

SMH also says Papalii will most likely take up a new deal in the next week, and Yeo is looking likely to re-sign. Here’s the link;

Great news about Alamoti. He’s a gun.

Casey McLean ⮕ Extends to 2030

Cpl places like ESPN reported that papa has agreed to terms, so hopefully the formal signing isn’t far away

On 100% footy, Nathan all but confirmed he is re-signing with Penrith. Very excited to be playing with Jet next year and beyond, and that an announcement will be made before November

Still sounded like he hasn’t had any serious conversations about re-signing, but certainly seems like he’s not interested in anywhere else.

Seeing Jett come up and debut may have lit a fire in him to train with and play alongside his brother.

Imagine lifting the trophy with your Dad and then your younger brother. The elite of the elite. Forget playing contracts, his after football career will be far more lucrative.
