Reds head coach Les Kiss believes star player Jordan Petaia will not be switching to the NRL, but he has urged Rugby Australia to do more to protect their players. Petaia, who is returning to action from a concussion setback, is attracting interest from top rugby league clubs. Negotiations have already begun with the St George Illawarra Dragons, who want to secure Petaia's services when his RA contract ends. Kiss emphasizes the importance of retaining talented players like Petaia and believes he has the potential to excel in both rugby codes. Dual code international Karmichael Hunt also praises Petaia's abilities and predicts he would thrive in the NRL.
