Costigan joins Raiders

The Canberra Raiders have signed former Brisbane Broncos forward Neville Costigan for three years.
The Broncos sacked Costigan earlier this month after he was charged with drink-driving.
Costigan's signing is a boost for the Raiders who will lose six senior players at the end of the season.
Jason Croker, Simon Woolford, Jason Smith, Adam Mogg and Michael Hodgson have all signed with other rugby league clubs, while Clinton Schifcofske will switch codes to rugby union with the Queensland Reds.
Costigan said he was looking forward to linking up with former Broncos team-mates Craig Frawley and Tom Learoyd-Lahrs.
"I know Tommy Learoyd-Lahrs, I talk to him once a week. He reckons they're all good blokes down there," Costigan said.
"They are a young side, it's a smaller town than Brisbane and I didn't mind it when I went down there to have a look, so it really caught my eye."
Costigan's former team-mate Brett Seymour, who was also sacked by the Broncos last month, has received an offer to join the Cronulla Sharks next season.

 

[raiders fan forever]

i think its quite a good signing

 

[Christmas Ape]

Good news.

 

[Raider Ultra]

Top news, our pack is going to be awesome next year.

 

[TiTTieS_[CNTDN]]

Is he available for us this year seeing how he was sacked by the Broncos?

 

[woodgers]

Yeah. Good news.

Who said Mooseheads wouldn't replace Nathan Smith?

 

[aussies1st]

Can't wait to see him in the Green.

players cant play for there new team that same year if they were signed after june 30th

 

[reptar]

Correct. All contracts must be registered by June 30th.

 

[Tidus_Raider]

So now that's Dane Tilse, Jason Williams and Neville Costigan. I'm surprised as hell Tevita Latu hasn't signed with us too. Faumuina and Sargeant wil be next to sign.

 

[aussies1st]

Faumuina come back to Canberra that would be a shock. Probably could put him in the centres.

 

[TiTTieS_[CNTDN]]

Thanks lads

 

[Raider Azz]

awsome signing. agreed ultra, our forward pack has alot of potentional next year.

 

[nickraider]

If he can play to his potential, he will be a top signing imo.

 

[thickos]

Let's hope he steps up to his 2004-05 form. Great signing though!

 

[skeepe]
