Cronulla sign Wests Tigers centre Dean Collis to a two-year deal
July 13, 2009 Cronulla have continued their aggressive recruitment drive with the signing of Wests Tigers centre Dean Collis to a two-year deal.
Collis joins fellow Sharks recruits John Morris (Tigers), Paul Aiton (Penrith), Adam Cuthbertson (Manly) and Albert Kelly (Parramatta).
The Sharks have also announced the re-signing of experienced goal kicking winger Luke Covell to a new one-year deal.
Sharks Coach Ricky Stuart said he had a lot of faith in 23-year-old Collis.
"You only have to go back two years ago and Dean had a representative experience playing for City and I still think his best football is in front of him," Stuart said.
Currently recovering from an arm injury, Collis has played just eight top grade games for the Tigers this year and 77 in total during an NRL career which began when he was a 17-year-old in 2003.
Collis has scored 20 NRL tries and kicked 15 goals from 18 attempts in 2008.
