It's why he can't wait to get back to some isolated training. And then playing.

Simonsson will be buoyed by the fact the NRL has signalled May 28 as a possible return date after the competition was shut down just two rounds in.

While the NRL and governments have enjoyed a back and forth about whether the game has been given the all clear to resume, Simonsson and his teammates are waiting to find out what they'll be allowed to do. And when.

The NRL says its been given the all clear from the NSW government to train, but NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard keeps indicating they're yet to get permission.

All teams will be given at least four weeks of full training together to ensure they're ready to play.

Canberra will also need to get permission from the ACT government - although they could potentially travel across the border to Queanbeyan to train if needed.

The Canberra Times contacted the ACT government about whether they'd be open to a Raiders return to full contact training in the required timeframe, with the government indicating they should have more of an idea after Easter.

For the past few weeks the Raiders have been training either at home or alone in parks to keep in shape.

Simonsson got some equipment from the Green Machine to help him keep in shape during the lockdown.

He's found being locked indoors for so long especially tough.

"It's been hard especially because athletes are used to being outdoors all day running around and training," Simonsson said.

"To be stripped right back to the bare basics and being restricted to our houses has been tough and quite challenging because I've got too much energy to be sitting inside all day. It's been a bit full on.

"But getting some equipment from the club and getting a bit of routine, just trying to create a routine each day, has been helpful.

"It'll definitely be made easier if we can get back into some sort of isolated training and playing. That'd be great ... it'll be good to play some footy."

Simonsson's managed by Gavin Orr's company. Orr's appeal against having his accreditation cancelled was dismissed on Thursday.

Given Simon Healey looks after his affairs, Simonsson didn't think it would affect him at all.

"I don't really know anything about it. I'll probably find out a bit more in the coming days from everyone from the company what happens going forward," he said.

"There's a few different accredited agents in the company. I work with Simon Healey. He's obviously still working so as far as I'm aware i'll just be working through him while the whole situation unfolds."
