Presumably still a front row forward to come in as well.

Like the one year deal part. Certainly seems a change in emphasis on contract length from the club. Think they’ve learned a few lessons
You might lose some now and again, but shorter deals gives you opportunities to freshen things up.

Looks a good player, we forget how much larger the NRL pool of players is, for them to stand out enough for 2nd grade is no mean feat and this guy looks to have plenty of guile and pace at dummy half, which neither of our current hookers have shown this year, Houghton because he has had to do long stints, because JJ is, sadly, not good enough. I'd rather sign young and fit project types than veteran and injury prone players that nobody else would take, as we have done on previous occasions.



Matthew Shaw write a good article about him, said that he has his opportunities at Souths made harder by the fact the reserves keep cancelling their season due to covid, he has only been able to play 11 reserve grade games due to covid. Plus he is trying to remove the best hooker in the world IMO.

A one year deal would make this deal better, see how he goes for a year, he is certainly the type of hooker we need, let's hope he is of higher SL standard.

Now you see it now you don't. As of now it's no longer on the Official website.

what a farce our fans information is, Sky are carrying it two of the morning papers carried it the RL press site is carrying the story too yet nothing from the club not even a denial explanation or holding statement. What are we expected to believe? The Coach and the player are quoted in the other articles so everyone seems to know about it except the fans who are one again scratching their heads.

Can’t disagree with you there Wilf as there’s something seriously lacking within the club in terms of its approach to its fans and members. You’d think in times when they want the club backing by us that they’d at least look like they want to keep us informed.
Think the PR team need a good kick in the ‘arris along with Clarke as it’s not good that the fans seem to be the last to know anything and the farce continues with press releases appearing then disappearing.

I'm not trying to stick up for the club here but maybe it's under embargo by Souths. Due to the GF this weekend? I can't imagine that's the reason though.

Maybe they are waiting for a certain day/time to get max impressions and web clicks.

Someone has made a bit of a boo boo though.

Great point. In addition to this maybe the club have failed to acknowledge the level of self entitlement of some of the fans on here when it comes to being the first to know.

Maybe they are packaging up a few bits of good news to put a marketing wrapper around for season passes to go on sale, rather than drip feeding.

More likely waiting for the outcome of Catalan and HKR desperately hoping HKR lose then announcing the new signing together with Soa and Mau
You can just imagine Pearsons face though if HKR reached the Grand final.
Whatever the reason the PR at the club is in the amateur league
