Newcastle Knights' powerhouse Leo Thompson has set a timeline for making a decision about his future after wrapping up his duties at the Pacific Championship with the Kiwis.
With 64 NRL games under his belt, Thompson's next move has been a topic of discussion lately.
Rumor has it that he may hit the free-agent market as soon as November 1, as he feels he might need more experience elsewhere due to concerns about the Knights.
Coach Adam O'Brien's squad has already bid farewell to Daniel Saifiti, who has joined the Dolphins.
There's talk that other players like Jayden Brailey, Adam Elliott, and Jackson Hastings might also be heading for the exit doors, creating a potential exodus from the club by the end of 2025.
While Thompson has hesitations about sticking with the Knights, a revised offer is now on the table for the burly front-rower.
It seems like a tough choice lies ahead for the Kiwi star as he navigates his future in the rough and tumble world of Rugby League.
