Raider #401
Joining the Raiders from the Warrington Wolves in 2025, Nicholson made his NRL debut against the Broncos where the English backrower crossed the line twice in his first match.
Managing to play the full 80 minutes on multiple occasions in 2025, Nicholson became a real weapon in Head Coach Ricky Stuart’s arsenal despite limited time at the club.
Unfortunately, he would miss four months of action in 2025 due to a syndesmosis injury and a fractured fibula.
Nicholson is set to remain at the Raiders until the end of the 2027 season.
