Author: Zero Tackle May 6, 2026 Duration: 18:41

In the first episode of The NRL Contract Show, host Darren Parkin is joined by Zero Tackle editor Scott Pryde to look at the state of the NRL’s player movement space and all the latest whispers and rumours that come with it. After Jarome Luai’s confirmed move to PNG, a Roosters forward follow him north, while a New Zealand playmaker has been tied to a switch to Queensland. The team also look at the club best-suited to make a play for Melbourne’s Shawn Blore, and name whether some of the biggest moves from the recent off-season have deserve an early ‘pass’ or ‘fail’ grading.
