The Newcastle Knights have officially ruled out acquiring two forwards: an international front-rower and a player from The Dolphins who is currently off-contract.
This decision makes them the fourth NRL team to do so.
Tui Kamikamica, a prominent player for the Melbourne Storm since 2017, may soon depart the club as he is set to be off-contract at season's end.
Despite having a club option that extends to 2026, the Storm is unlikely to activate it due to ongoing salary cap difficulties.
Instead, the club plans to focus on developing younger talents like Lazarus Vaalepu and Ativalu Lisati.
Kamikamica now faces uncertainty for the first time in his career as he has been linked with various teams, both in Australia and overseas in the Super League.
The Newcastle Herald reports that the Knights have joined the Brisbane Broncos, North Queensland Cowboys, and South Sydney Rabbitohs in their lack of interest in signing the Storm front-rower.
