In a stunning turn of events, Braydon Trindall, the sought-after playmaker, has made a huge play by agreeing to a new three-year deal with the Sharks.

This maneuver in NRL free agency is causing waves in the sporting world, with Trindall committing himself to the Cronulla club until the end of the 2028 season.

After facing a rocky road earlier in the year with a roadside test revealing substances in his system, Trindall took time off for rehab but bounced back stronger than ever.

His return to the game was nothing short of spectacular, leading the Sharks to the brink of a grand final appearance and delivering a memorable finals win against the Cowboys.

The 25-year-old showcased his worth as the team's main playmaker in the latter part of the season, stepping up in Nicho Hynes' absence and even continuing to shine when the former Dally M Medal winner returned to the lineup.

Despite speculation that Trindall could be lured away by other teams in 2026, he quickly put those rumors to rest by expressing his loyalty to the Sharks, stating, "I didn't want to go anywhere else."

With Trindall's future secured, all eyes are now on Daniel Atkinson, who had a breakout season but is currently without a contract for 2025.

Rival clubs are circling, ready to offer Atkinson a tempting deal to lure him away for more opportunities.

It's a game of chess in the world of Rugby League, with each move shaping the future of the sport.
