Cameron Murray, the Australian Kangaroos forward, expressed openness to a return to rugby union later in his career. Despite his current focus on rugby league and preparations for the World Cup final, he acknowledged the appeal of travelling and experiencing the union game's international reach. Murray, who captained Newington College in schoolboy rugby, remains under contract with the South Sydney Rabbitohs until the end of 2028. He has been closely following the progress of former teammates Angus Crichton and Mark Nawaqanitawase as they transition back to union. Murray's consideration of a switch is contingent on his fitness and desire to continue representing Australia.
