season revival as the side focused heavily on defence. 2020−present: Start of a new decade On 10 March 2020, Canterbury were rocked by another off-field scandal just two days before the start of the 2020 NRL season after it was alleged two Canterbury players Jayden Okunbor and Corey Harawira-Naera met two school girls during a school visit on a pre-season trip to Port Macquarie earlier in March, whilst a sexual encounter was alleged to occur, the school girls were of the age of consent and there was no criminal investigation pending. Both players were asked to “show cause” why the NRL should not cancel or suspend their registrations as players. On 11 March 2020, it was revealed that Okunbor had used Instagram to contact one of the school girls. In a leaked message obtained through Fox Sports, Okunbor said to the school girl "Yeah had to have a good look, what are we doing tonight?, Okay, okay, we’re you at the school today?". It was also revealed one of the two players sanctioned had sexual intercourse with a teacher from another school during the same pre-season trip. On the same day, it was revealed that because of the two players actions, new major sponsor Rashays had canceled their $2 million sponsorship with the club. Rashays had signed on to become Canterbury's front of shirt sponsor. Rashays owner Rami Ykmour released a statement saying "It’s a shame two players could wreck it for everyone, It’s disgusting. It's repulsive, to be honest. That’s something else. If they sack them, I would stand by the club and the NRL’s decision". Canterbury finished the 2020 NRL season in 15th place on the table after a horror year on and off the field. Canterbury finished on equal points with Brisbane but avoided the wooden spoon due to a slightly better for and against record. Canterbury started the 2021 NRL season poorly losing their opening three matches including being kept scoreless in round 2 & round 3 against Penrith and Brisbane respectively. This was the first time in the club's history that this had occurred. In round 4 of the 2021 NRL season, Canterbury were defeated 38-0 by South Sydney in the traditional Good Friday game. Canterbury became only the second team in the NRL era to lose three straight games without scoring a point after Cronulla who achieved this in the 2014 NRL season. It
