Four months after rejecting a transfer to the North Queensland Cowboys<\/a>, Gold Coast Titans<\/a> front-rower Jaimin Jolliffe<\/a> has reportedly entered into talks with an NRL<\/a> side over a new contract.<\/p>\n

Reaching the 100-match milestone earlier in the year with the Titans, Jolliffe has been a solid performer for the club off the interchange bench and also in the starting front-row where he averaged around 60 minutes per match at the backend of the 2025 campaign.<\/p>\n

Although he has been a consistent middle since his debut in 2020, his future has been uncertain for several months due to his team’s ongoing struggles with the salary cap.<\/p>\n

Recently catching the interest of the Castleford Tigers<\/a> and St Helens<\/a>, which saw him tipped with an exit from the NRL<\/a>,\u00a0The Courier Mail<\/a>\u00a0reports that Jolliffe’s current club (Gold Coast Titans<\/a>) have stepped up talks with him over a contract extension.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, I’m contracted here next year,\u201d\u00a0he said in August.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cI’m here at the Titans, and that’s just my focus and contract talks. When that pops up, my manager gets in touch with me, and we’ll deal with that then.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut for the next year, I’m definitely here and I’d love to stay here. I’d love to see success at this club, and I’ve been here a long time now, and we’ve got such a talented roster, but we haven’t got it together.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere’s been really good teams that have had good rosters that haven’t gone well, and they can turn it around.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we can follow some of the teams that are doing well, like your Bulldogs and stuff like that, I think we can definitely turn it around.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Four months after rejecting a transfer to the North Queensland Cowboys, Gold Coast Titans front-rower Jaimin Jolliffe has…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":347370,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[568],"tags":[64,63,761,762,158,85],"class_list":["post-347369","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nrl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-national-rugby-league","tag-nationalrugbyleague","tag-nrl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/347369","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=347369"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/347369\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/347370"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=347369"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=347369"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=347369"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
