Junior Paulo and Shannon Boyd might be leaving Canberra but fellow star forward Sia Soliola is determined to stay.
The 31-year-old has been a key member of the Raiders since joining the NRL club in 2015, highlighted by winning the Mal Meninga Medal in his debut season.
While Paulo and Boyd have accepted big-money deals at Parramatta and Gold Coast respectively, the off-contract Soliola doesn't want to go anywhere.
"This club's been a great club to me and I'd like to repay them as much as I can," Soliola said on Tuesday.
"It's one of those things my manager and the club will work towards and hopefully we can get a good agreement and move on from it."
While disappointed to see Boyd and Paulo depart, Soliola doesn't believe the Raiders need to recruit replacements.
Instead, those positions could be filled from within as Queensland forward Josh Papalii looks likely to re-sign with the club.
Halves Aidan Sezer and Blake Austin are the other key Raiders still yet to make a decision on their futures beyond this season.
"There are a lot of good young prospects coming through," Soliola said.
"You saw Charlie Gubb make his starting debut in the front row last week and Liam Knight is there always knocking on the door.
Soliola has made 69 appearances for the Green Machine, becoming a beloved figure among Raiders supporters.
He played for the Sydney Roosters and Super League club St Helens before signing with the Raiders.
