    The NRL will push for a change to the game's transfer system with CEO Andrew Abdo admitting there are pain points in the current model

    The NRL will push for a change to the game's transfer system with CEO Andrew Abdo admitting there are pain points in the current model

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    At least seven players already deciding their future elsewhere for 2023.

    The image of Viliame Kikau in a Canterbury jersey and Brandon Smith's love affair with the Sydney Roosters have also enraged fans, with both players still at their respective clubs for 2022.

    The opposition comes from the Rugby League Players' Association, who fear what impact injuries could have for an athlete's earning potential.

    Abdo says he can see both sides of the argument, but is confident change could come.
