ROOSTERS’ RECRUITMENT COUP
The Roosters are preparing to lock in Lindsay Collins to the longest deal at the club despite the prop still being contracted until the end of 2026.
It is understood that Collins and the Roosters are locked in talks for the Kangaroos and Maroons star to remain at the club until at least the end of 2028.
Collins current contract was a four year deal signed in 2021. Since then he has gone on to become a mainstay for the Maroons and Kangaroos and one of the game’s best props. Collins would be 32 by the time the new deal expires. The Roosters do not have anyone contracted beyond 2027 when the deals of Sitili Tupouniua, Dom Young, Billy Smith, Victor Radley and Nat Butcher’s all end.
Collins has become the Roosters’ forward leader and has been earmarked as the man to lead the middle of the field following Jared Waerea-Hargreaves’ decision to join the Super League at the end of this year after a decorated career.
Collins and Spencer Leniu will take up that starting prop role with Leniu in the first year of a three year deal.
The Roosters are also hopeful that a two-year extension will be done with fellow prop Terrell May.
