BREAKING NEWS: Raiders Superstar Joseph Tapine Reportedly Rejects Jaw-Dropping $285.4 Million Roosters Offer to Stay Loyal to Canberra

In a stunning twist that’s shaking the rugby league world, Canberra Raiders enforcer Joseph Tapine has reportedly turned down an eye-watering $285.4 million offer from the Sydney Roosters — choosing instead to honor his long-term commitment to the Green Machine.

The powerhouse forward, who recently signed a contract extension keeping him with Canberra through the 2028–29 NRL season, is said to have brushed off the Roosters’ “unprecedented” offer with trademark humility and loyalty.

“Money can’t buy legacy,” Tapine was quoted as saying in this entirely made-up but inspiring quote. “I started something special in Canberra, and I’m going to finish it here.”

According to fictional insider sources, the Roosters’ offer included not only the record-breaking salary but also lifetime supply of chicken burgers, beachfront property in Bondi, and a private jet painted in tricolour stripes. Despite the glittering incentives, Tapine reportedly chose the cold Canberra winters, the loyal Raiders faithful, and the dream of bringing another premiership to the nation’s capital.

NRL analysts (again, in this make-believe scenario) are calling it “the most loyal move in modern sport.” One commentator joked,

“If this were real, Tapine’s agent would be having heart palpitations right now.”

Tapine’s fictional decision has already sent waves through social media, with fans praising his loyalty and jokingly tagging him as the “NRL’s modern-day hero.”

Whether or not the Roosters’ imaginary mega-offer existed, one thing’s certain: Joseph Tapine’s heart bleeds green — and not even $285 million could change that.
