The Warriors are making a last-ditch play to lure promising Sharks forward Braden Uele out of the Shire.
Uele has been one of the finds of the season at Cronulla, with his damaging runs and powerful surges, key to the Sharks victories this year.
A decision is expected to be made this weekend.
The young bull knows that he has played his best football under Cronulla coach John Morris and is also aware that the Warriors are unlikely to play finals footy at the consistent rate the Sharks are.
It's why even the Warriors know that they'll be doing well to stop Uele from signing a new deal with Cronulla.
SAMOAN INTERNATIONAL OPEN TO OFFERS
He's been one of the Tigers most consistent forwards, but now he's on the outer.
Josh Aloiai is being shopped to rival NRL clubs despite his impact for the Tigers this season.
Off-contract at the end of this season, Aloiai's manager Tyran Smith has been busily shopping the Samoan international to rival clubs.
MATT LODGE DRAWING INTEREST
The Eels are preparing to launch an almighty bid for Brisbane forward Matt Lodge.
Off-contract at the Broncos, Lodge is eager to move back closer to where he was raised in Western Sydney.
Tough and hard-working, Lodge is exactly what the Parramatta pack is crying out for.
Watch for the Eels to offer Lodge a four-year multi-million dollar deal.
A NEW SIDE TO ROOSTERS PLAYERS
The refreshingly relaxed attitude of the Roosters players inside the NSW Origin camp was a major talking point among the Sydney media who covered the Blues 10-day camp.
And in particular, the scribes were blown away by Latrell Mitchell's easy-going nature.
The reason the journalists were surprised by the upbeat and friendly demeanour of the Roosters players was because they rarely show those qualities while inside their club bubble at Bondi.
Roosters coach Trent Robinson and the club's media manager want their players to have as little to do with journalists as possible.
