Former Newcastle Knights prospect Oryn Keeley appears set to continue his NRL career with a new club in a different state, according to reports.
Knight's Brief First-Grade Stint
The young forward, who came through the Knights' development pathways, managed to make two first-grade appearances for Newcastle during his time at the club. His potential had been noted within the Hunter region's rugby league circles before his departure.
Interstate Move on the Cards
While the exact destination club has not been officially confirmed in the initial report, the key detail is that Keeley's next opportunity will see him relocate interstate. This move represents a significant step for the player as he aims to reignite his top-flight career outside of his original nursery.
