Penrith Panthers extend contracts for Tom Ale and Kalani Going through 2027

The Penrith Panthers have announced contract extensions for forwards Tom Ale and Kalani Going, securing their services for 2027. Both players joined the team from the New Zealand Warriors ahead of the 2026 season. They played significant roles in the NSW Cup victory but faced challenges advancing to the top grade, with Ale yet to make his debut in the NRL. Penrith's general manager, Shane Elford, expressed his satisfaction with the re-signing, highlighting their leadership and experience. The extensions come as the Panthers prepare for roster changes, following the departures of Scott Sorensen and Liam Henry to the Perth Bears.
