Cameron Munster has been granted permission by the Melbourne Storm to speak with the PNG Chiefs about a potential switch for 2028, even while sidelined with a knee injury. The 31-year-old's Storm contract runs through the end of 2027, and both sides have expressed openness to a further extension. The PNG Chiefs have already secured high-profile signings including Jarome Luai, Alex Johnston, and Connor Watson, with aims to add Joey Manu and Zac Lomax. The Chiefs are delaying discussions about a premier halves partner until the November 1 transfer window opens. Munster could travel to Port Moresby for a facilities tour as part of the process, and a move would place him alongside Luai as a potent halves combination. If not, rival clubs remain eyeing players like Nathan Cleary, while Munster's future beyond 2027 remains uncertain.
