The NRL’s new stance on the salary cap could have a massive impact on Indigenous footy — and honestly, it doesn’t sit right.

The Sydney Morning Herald is reporting that injuries picked up at community carnivals like the Koori Knockout or Murri Carnival will no longer be eligible for salary-cap relief. Meaning if an NRL player gets hurt representing their mob, the club still has to carry their full salary under the cap while they recover.

On paper, it looks like just another policy tweak. But let’s be real — this could scare clubs into blocking players from taking part altogether.

And that’s the real issue.

For our Indigenous players, these carnivals aren’t just “off-season footy.” They’re a return to Country, a cultural reunion — a chance to play for family, not contracts. Blokes like Josh Addo-Carr, Cody Walker and Tyrell Sloan have always said the Knockout isn’t just a tournament — it’s identity, pride and community in motion.

The NRL says it’s about protecting clubs. But what about protecting culture?

There has to be a smarter way — one that keeps players safe, respects club investments, but still lets our biggest stars light up the Koori and Murri carnivals like they always have.

Because if footy loses that connection to community and culture… it loses a piece of its spirit too. 🖤💛❤️

Bessy Combo: A Star on the Rise

Bessy Combo is a proud Dunghutti, Walbunja, and Bundjalung girl who’s had an exceptional year in footy.

This powerhouse prop was contracted to the Sydney Roosters Lisa Fiaola squad in 2025, where she made it all the way to the Grand Final. Despite the Roosters going down to the Eels, Bessy had an absolute blinder—dominating in the middle with her trademark strength and explosive speed.

With her contract now up, word on the street is there’s a bidding war underway for this young talent. And it’s no surprise—Bessy has repped NSWCHS for the past two years, consistently making metres from the back fence and leaving defenders in her wake.

Over the weekend, I watched Bessy tear it up at the Koori Knockout. She’s not just strong—she’s quick off the mark, and gee, she hits hard. Her presence on the field is unmissable.

Bessy's KO journey began at just 10 years old, playing for Narwan Eels U12s—her Nan’s mob. Since then, she’s gone on to win two Knockouts with her beloved Waterloo Storm sisters in the U15s and U17s. Now, she proudly laces up for the Newcastle Yowies.

Bessy Combo is one to watch—and her story is just getting started. 🌟🏉

Nothing but positives all weekend I believe I seen only one or two small fight on the field all weekend but the mole wanted to share those negatives instead of posting any positives, of cause the racist comments were coming for click bait on your page

Hi everyone,

After a huge weekend of footy, we know everyone’s enjoying a well-earned break!

We’ve recently been contacted by Lithgow Workmen’s Club, who were impressed by the standard of footy played over the weekend. They’re now on the lookout for players for their upcoming 2026 season.

They’re seeking players across several positions, with a particular focus on an experienced half and middle forwards to strengthen their roster. There’s also potential for a Captain/Coach role, as well as employment opportunities in various industries, including mining.

If you’re interested, please message this page and we can connect you directly.
