Harry Grant is contemplating a potential move to the Newcastle Knights as he approaches a decision on his contract. The hooker is set to become a free agent on November 1 if he does not exercise his player option with the Melbourne Storm for the 2028 season. Reports indicate that Grant may not take the option and could either seek an extension with the Storm or explore opportunities with other clubs. The Knights, who are dealing with salary cap constraints, may have limited capacity to sign Grant, but he is seen as a valuable addition if they can afford it. Grant is also preparing for an upcoming World Cup campaign with the Kangaroos.
