Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs centre Bronson Xerri is seeking an immediate release from his contract, despite it not expiring until the end of the season. This move follows a turbulent season for the player and the club. Several rival teams are reportedly pushing for Xerri to be available before June 30th, potentially accelerating his departure. The Bulldogs initially signed Xerri after he served a doping ban, hoping he would become a key player. However, his time at Belmore has been marked by off-field issues and inconsistent form. Xerri’s early exit would free up cap space for the Bulldogs, but also represents a loss of potential talent. Negotiations are expected to intensify as rival clubs attempt to secure the centre’s signature.
