Super League club reportedly set to lose two huge stars

Super League

Many clubs like Leeds Rhinos, Hull FC and Warrington Wolves have recently announced significant departures in recent weeks.

Leeds lost Blake Austin immediately as he joins Castleford Tigers in their relegation battle.

They are also set to lose Aidan Sezer at the end of the year with the halfback set to join Wests Tigers in the 2024 NRL season.

Warrington meanwhile have confirmed Daryl Clark is headed to St Helens but have kept hold of George Williams as many clubs chase halfbacks.

This has seen Hull FC lose Jake Clifford to North Queensland Cowboys.

But one Super League club is set to lose two halfbacks in the shape of Catalans Dragons with L’Independent reporting that the French side will lose both their six and seven.

May joined the Dragons last season after guiding Penrith Panthers to consecutive Grand Finals winning the 2021 decider having lost in 2020.

He went on to play for Samoa in the Rugby League World Cup but was forced off in game one against England with dislocated hip.

However, he has returned from injury in fine form at Catalans wearing the number six jersey and helping the Dragons to the Super League summit.

That said, his form has clearly sparked interest and NRL club Canterbury Bulldogs were interested in May for 2024.

Sky Sports’ Jenna Brooks reported that the Bulldogs had offered him a multi-year deal.

However, Rugby League Live have now reported this deal has collapsed and he is now available to other Super League clubs.

His teammate Mitchell Pearce will be headed to the NRL to return to Sydney Roosters.

The Dragons have moved to replace him and have been linked with Theo Fages from Huddersfield Giants.

They have now been linked with a huge move for NRL veteran and star man Matt Moylan.

The halfback has made nearly 200 appearances in the NRL including 100 for the Cronulla Sharks.

He joined the club in 2018 after a successful run at Penrith Panthers.

Moylan can play both in the halves and at fullback so is the ideal replacement for Sam Tomkins who is set to retire whilst also helping replace Tyrone May and Mitchell Pearce.

The former New South Wales and Australian representative would be a huge signing, perhaps the biggest of the season and it would be a statement of intent for the Dragons.
