As his future at the Gold Coast Titans remains clouded, star back-rower David Fifita has found himself linked to a Sydney team.
One of the highest-paid players in the NRL, with an annual salary of around $1 million, Fifita has had glimpses of brilliance since signing and moving to the Gold Coast, but hasn’t looked like the same player he was during his time at Red Hill with the Brisbane Broncos.
Finding himself out of favour at the Titans, which saw him axed to the QLD Cup, reports recently emerged that he is being shopped around to rival clubs despite still being contracted until the end of the 2026 NRL season.
Destined not to be at the Titans for much longer, Fifita has now found himself linked to the South Sydney Rabbitohs, which comes just over 12 months after he backflipped on a four-year contract to join their rivals, the Sydney Roosters.
“There’s no point carrying on. I already know what I can do and me and Des know where we stand.
“It’s hard for me to speak the truth now, but I’ll have fun and smile and play well for the Jets. I know the real me. I know what I can do when I feel happy and comfortable and what side I want to play on.
“I do want to stay. I am happy at the Titans and I love the club. At the moment, I’m focusing on Ipswich, I want to get a win for them and I want to get back to the NRL.”
