Later this week, October will turn into November, and in the world of rugby league, and the NRL in particular, that is a much bigger thing than it sounds.<\/p>\n

November 1 is the first day that players in the NRL who have less than one year remaining on their contracts will \u2018go to market\u2019 and are free to negotiate with rival clubs over a contract for the following season. Essentially, a player whose contract expires at the end of 2027 can, from November 1, speak to other clubs over a contract that will begin in 2028.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just NRL clubs that players can be approached by, with Super League clubs also falling into that bracket. Most clubs are full on their quota for 2027, but will have space for a big-name signing in 12 months\u2019 time, should they wish to do so.<\/p>\n

There are a plethora of high-profile names that at this stage will be heading to the open market, with the biggest name arguably being Sam Walker, who has today had a contract offer from Sydney Roosters withdrawn<\/a>.<\/p>\n

From former World Cup winners to England internationals, there are a total of 181 players without a contract after 2027, with Penrith megastar Nathan Cleary the biggest name on the list.<\/p>\n

The likes of Herbie Farnworth, Morgan Knowles and Max King, all of whom are in England\u2019s World Cup squad, will be free to negotiate, as will the likes of Tom Trbojevic and Royce Hunt, who have been heavily linked with Super League clubs in the past.<\/p>\n

Below is the full list of players that are headed to the market. Clubs still have until the end of the week to tie these players down, but the vast majority could well be talking about taking their futures elsewhere in a week\u2019s time.<\/p>\n
