If Santa were to visit each club and deliver one present, what would fit the needs of each side ahead of the new year?
Here, we look at the one thing atop each NRL team's Christmas wishlist this festive season...
Canterbury Bulldogs
Wish:Â Gus gets his man
Failing to sign Addin Fonua-Blake, Ben Hunt, Jarome Luai, Ryan Papenhuyzen and Stefano Utoikamanu in recent months, the Bulldogs are desperate to make a marquee signing and have been linked with New Zealand international Leo Thompson.
Already meeting with the forward, Thompson would not only boost the club's forward pack, but Phil Gould would get his man as he re-cements himself as a recruitment maestro.
It is understood that at the moment, the Bulldogs are one of five teams involved in a heated battle for Thompson's signature, with them and the Canberra Raiders being the lead front-runners for his services.
This comes after Thompson informed the Newcastle Knights that he will not be re-signing with the club ahead of the 2026 NRL season.
It would seem that the board and coach of Newcastle Knights don’t believe in Santa.
