Fresh off announcing the signatures of Aidan Guerra and Shaun Kenny-Dowall, the Knights rebuild is set to continue with two more signings expected to be announced soon.

The Courier Mail is reporting that the Knights have signed Tautau Moga and Broncos teammate Herman Ese'ese could be joining him in Newcastle next season.

Moga is only on a second-tier deal worth around $70,000 and while he does have an option in his favour for next season, the arrival of Jack Bird on big money means the Broncos don't have much room in the salary cap to compete with the Knights.

The Broncos may have accepted losing Moga but are still fighting hard to retain Ese'ese.

Ese'ese had reportedly decided to leave Brisbane on Saturday morning, but the Broncos appealed for more time in the hopes to convince him to stay.

The Knights three-year, $1.4 million offer for the 22-year-old prop is significantly higher than that of the Broncos, it seems likely that both Moga and Ese'ese will continue to play together, just not in Brisbane.
