Raider #399
2025’s Raiders Rookie of the Year Savelio Tamale burst onto the NRL scene after joining the club from the Dragons.
Tamale made his NRL debut in the final round of the 2024 season for the Dragons against his future club in the Green Machine.
Since joining the Raiders, Tamale became a mainstay on the wing averaging 150 metres and scoring seven tries in his first NRL season, despite being cruelled by a knee injury which saw him miss two months of footy.
Tamale will look to keep up his incredible form from 2025 as the winger looks to continue locking up his spot on the flank.
