Terry Campese commits long-term future to the Canberra Raiders
Brent Read June 05, 2009

Article from: The Australian
NSW five-eighth Terry Campese has celebrated his State of Origin debut by signing a long-term contract extension with Canberra.

Campese, who had another year remaining on his existing deal, has agreed to stay with the Raiders until the end of 2014.

The 24-year-old had offers from rival NRL clubs as well as overseas rugby union, but his first preference was always to commit his future to the Raiders.

After making his Test debut as part of last year's Australian squad at the World Cup, Campese was one of seven rookies who played for the Blues in Queensland's 28-18 win at Etihad Stadium on Wednesday night.

After being persued by several NRL Clubs, the Roosters are excited to announce the deal and are looking forward to working with Jarred and developing him into a regular first grader.

If he is as good as the hype is going about him, that will be a good signing.

Don't know if this has been mentioned:

Ben Farrah (Cowboys) and Michael Bani (Manly) Direct swap, and on contract for the two clubs until the end of 2011.

[CJG 182]

Haha so are the teary eyed roosters fans waaah

 

[Non Terminator]

I ain't teary. I know how we're playing.

 

[Garts]

Cant blame JWH for going, he is not worth the cash the rooters have signed him for, at least at the moment. Anyway, lets hope he does not go the way of Mason and O'Meley. They sure know how to get the best from their forwards.

 

[gong_eagle]

Didn't they Develop Willy Mason???roll:

Yeah they made him more over-rated

 

[Disco]

JWH does have a load of potential and could be an absolute Superstar of the NRL.

But we cant keep em all and the Roosters apparently paid $520k over 3 years.

As long as we keep Foran, Lussick and Hoppa we will be fine. plus with T-Rex's imminent move to the forwards and Cuthbo's return (and hopefully Baileys move to lock in 2010) we have plenty of depth in the forwards

 

[fortae]

plus with T-Rex's imminent move to the forwards

You bought Williams, only to lose JWH. It's only a smart move, if you were hedging your bets thiking that JWH could likely decide to leave. I think he's been pushed out by that move and not Orford, as reported.

I keep hearing so much hype about the bloke. Hype doesn't always equal form *cough* Filiga *cough*
