The Sydney Roosters have today received confirmation that the NRL contract of Mark Nawaqanitawase has been registered, enabling him to take the final position in the Club’s 2024 NRL Top 30 roster.
Having secured an early release from his rugby contract, Nawaqanitawase will link with the Roosters upon the conclusion of his commitments at the Paris 2024 Olympics which commence later this month.
While Mark will be taking the final spot in our roster for 2024, our focus won’t be on rushing him into the NRL, but about fast-tracking his transition into rugby league.

“We’re really pleased to be in a position to have Mark join us once his commitments in Paris are over,” said Roosters Head Coach, Trent Robinson.
“While Mark will be taking the final spot in our roster for 2024, our focus won’t be on rushing him into the NRL, but about fast-tracking his transition into rugby league.
“We’re looking forward to officially welcoming Mark to the Roosters next month and we wish him all the very best in his representative duties at the Olympics. Bonne Chance!” he added.
