Daniel Tupou has stepped away from the game just days after the Sydney Roosters claimed the grand final. The winger walks away as a four-time premiership winner, all earned with the Roosters, having never suited up for a rival team.
The Roosters described themselves as "lost for words" at his departure. Tupou's full NRL journey was spent in red, white and blue, cementing his place as one of the most loyal one-club players in the competition's recent memory.
