Tbh guys,
Today in the press conference Dragons had they only announced Morris re-signing. . .
You would think that if Poore has agreed to stay but not yet put pen to paper they would have mentioned it today?

Unless he signs for the original deal than it isn't worth it of we have to fork out more money. One player will not make a difference to the playing roster for next year......

Hm i think there is alot more to it.
Why if Poore is going to stay wouldn't they just put the press conference off to announce both?
What is the point in having 2 different ones?

In-form St George Illawarra prop Justin Poore set to re-sign with the club

By David Riccio
May 31, 2009


NSW debutant-in-waiting Justin Poore is poised to cap the greatest week of his career by signing a new contract at St George Illawarra.
The Sunday Telegraph reported the prop has verbally agreed to a new deal with the Dragons, with whom he made his debut in 2004.

The news will come as a major blow to Cronulla and Parramatta, who had dangled $1 million deals for him to leave the Dragons.

Poore, who has a British passport, also attracted huge interest from several clubs in the UK Super League.

The 24-year-old had spent the past two months contemplating his future, with Dragons officials fearing they had all but lost their strike forward.

But his desire to remain on the South Coast to be with his family and run his thriving personal training business proved too much.

Poore's loyalty will leave both Cronulla and Parramatta officials casting their net elsewhere with the Eels certain to try to lure promising Roosters forward Shane Shackleton.

Poore is one of three Dragons named in the NSW squad.

Weekend newspaper reports indicated the Dragons were closing in on their man, but Doust said negotiations had been put on hold until after Wednesday Origin series opener in Melbourne.

It isn't going to happen guys...... Matt Bell and Keith Peters are where its at! Keep the faith..... ;-)

so have the Dragons got the Roosters old accountant now?
They have a top squad and don't seem to be losing players.

I'm sick of people using use as leverage to get better deals, and vice-versa with our players using other clubs to do the same

What can you do?
Player manages manipulate every sector of the system to squeeze out a deal.
Tbh when where in negotiations with players (especially after hayne couple of years back) i just block it out.
Im really hoping Hayne doesn't do the same this year i really do.
