The 2023 season might be gearing up for the finals, but in the ever-changing world of the NRL transfer market, attention is already shifting to 2024 and beyond.
Every NRL side has less than ten spots available in their Top 30 for next season, while a select handful of clubs are closing in on a full complement already.

You can use our easy dropdown menu below to navigate between each club, and we will update this every time there is a signing or player movement for next year so that you can keep on top of how your club is shaping up for next season.

What they still need
As always seems to be the way, the Panthers are building a strong squad of local juniors, even in the face of a pair of high-profile departures. Stephen Crichton is off to the Bulldogs, while Spencer Leniu is (yet to be officially confirmed) joining the Roosters.
That does leave the side with some gaps, and at the present time, with five roster spots still available, it's the middle third where they will want to add some depth. Right now, Moses Leota and James Fisher-Harris are being backed up by Lindsay Smith, while Liam Henry and Matthew Eisenhuth will both come into calculations for game time next year.
The suggestion is that Penrith won't look outside the club to complete the squad either - and fair enough. Their production line of local juniors just continues bringing out the big guns on a yearly basis. Henry, Ativalu Lisati, and Mavrik Geyer are already being promoted from development contracts in 2024.
That said, Penrith will likely look to tie up more local juniors from either their SG Ball, Jersey Flegg or NSW Cup side.
They have also signed Paul Alamoti, Daine Laurie and Brad Schneider. The trio are all still young and will be looking to make an impression at the team when they get the chance.
Hi,Hasn’t Kaeo Weekes signed with Canberra?
He’d have to be there first choice Fullback or 5/8th.
This signature is not yet official.
Sharks: New signings NIL. Roster spots available NIL.
Don’t expect any improvement this year if Craig Fitzgibbon does not give game-time to the players the club has been developing.
If he thinks that they are never going to be better than NSW Cup, why has he re-signed them?
