According to reports from zerotackle.com, Adam Elliott, a key player in the Knights' forward pack at lock, may soon be bidding farewell to the team.
Having made a name for himself since joining the Knights in 2023, Elliott has been a standout player on the field.

According to Adrian Proszenko from The Herald, other players who have been mentioned in potential exits include Daniel Saifiti, Jayden Brailey, and Jack Hetherington.
As the Knights continue to make changes and reshape their roster, Elliott's future with the club remains uncertain, with speculation swirling about where he may end up next in the world of Rugby League.
