Raiders center Sisa Waqa has reportedly requested an early release from the remaining year on his contract with Canberra to take up a deal in French Rugby union.
Waqa has admitted to having a gambling addiction and associated financial debts, and there is a concern at the Raiders for the 29‑year‑old’s welfare if he moves to Europe away from his young family.
The Raiders will take on Sea Eagles at 4pm Sunday.
Meanwhile the Rabbitohs beat the Cowboys 31-18 last night.
