Big unit.
Many Storm fans have big raps on him. Versatile, can play variety of positions and very young.
V happy with this signing.
Add Masa / Frz / Thommo / Sims / Packer / Host and co. ... looking OK up front.

Interesting signing 198cm tall unit playing hooker as stated on his profile, may turn out to be another good ball playing prop likes James Graham.

 

[The Doc]

Still a young fella... has size and has heart.
Kerr, Leilua (needs to be resigned asap), and Host up front... 3 young bulls to take the side into the future!!!
Mose, Simms, Frizzell, AhMau, JDB and Thompson provide the experience.
Looking good up front for the future.

LOL how many times have we said that before? Watch out everyone could be the next Jardine Bobongi!

Why would Bellamy let him go?

 

[CarrrnDragons]

good signing, big unit

 

[Dragons1986]

Why would Bellamy let him go?

That is a terrible argument, Wayne let Ash Taylor go, Sharks let Frizz go, Happens a lot, Not gonna say Kerr is a star or anything but the tired "Why did they let him go?" argument means nothing.

Why would Bellamy let him go?

Maybe someone told them for once their CAP was full.

 

[JohnnoMcJohnno]

Can he play 5/8?

With our track record on recruitment you can't blame him for being sceptical.

 

[Dragons 09]

Can he play 5/8?

More importantly, can he coach?

Good signing.Just hope it doesn't mean we missed out on Leilua

It wasn't meant to be an argument.

IIt's a question, I'm curious.

if Bellamy rated him, he'd still be at Melb, we've probably got ourselves another storm dud

Finally some good news . Although still young ,this player could possibly become the other half of the ' bookend ' combination that our pack desperately needs , alternating with Packer and big Mose , more so when close to the try-line , any of one of those three will have the size to force their way over , or offload to a support .

Lack of real size up front ( with the exception of Packer ) has been a real problem with the team over the last few years . The forwards were playing above their weight against most of sides .

However I believe that with the addition of some real BIG boys to the pack , we will finally be on a level playing field , or perhaps tilted slightly in our favour .
Key attributes - young , big lump of a lad that will put more muscle on his frame in the next few years . Also , as already mentioned by others , he will gain invaluable experience from the other older forwards

If the Dragons Recruitment can manage to resign Leilua and also extend the contracts of Host and Frizzell things will finally look brighter .

 

[OzDragon]

More importantly, can he coach?

Even more importantly, can he run the board?

 

[coast_dragons]

Saw a future else where and possibly didn't see one at the Storm.

Young players will move on to get an oppurtunity and in this case its no different.

Great News and now if we can wrap up Luciano as well then we will have some size and talent for the near future like the good old days....

 

[St Georgio]

Smart signing from Doust today, keeps the heat from himself and McGregor hopefully for a couple of days.
Can't wait for scumulla to put 40 on us!
