💥🏉BREAKING NEWS: AN UNEXPECTED DEPARTURE💚 | In a shocking twist that has sent ripples through the NRL community, Canberra Raiders Head Coach Ricky Stuart has officially terminated his three-year contract with the club, marking the end of an extraordinary era defined by passion, resilience, and unwavering loyalty.

 

After years of steering the Green Machine with heart and vision, Stuart’s sudden decision has left fans, players, and the broader rugby league world stunned.
