In a move that has sent shockwaves through the rugby league world, the Sydney Roosters have confirmed that Sitili Tupouniua will be leaving the nest at the end of the 2024 NRL season.
The news has certainly shaken things up for the Tricolours, as Tupouniua has been a key player for the club since making his NRL debut back in 2018.
Hailing from the Roosters' prestigious Pathway Program, Tupouniua has shown immense talent and determination on the field, earning him the title of Player 1178.
With 96 NRL games under his belt, it's clear that Tupouniua has made a significant impact during his time with the Roosters.
As he prepares to spread his wings and fly the coop to join another NRL club, Tupouniua leaves behind a legacy that will not be easily forgotten.
The Roosters will no doubt feel his absence, but they will also undoubtedly wish him all the best in his future endeavours.
With this announcement, the Roosters are faced with the challenge of filling the void left by Tupouniua's departure.
It will be interesting to see how they adapt and evolve without him in the team, but one thing is for sure - rugby league is a game of constant change, and the Roosters will need to embrace this new chapter with strength and resilience.
