Is it actually official? I haven't seen any confirmation from our club. I've only seen it referenced in a few articles and it wasn't really a focus part of them either.
I'm only hesitant to believe it as it's pretty rare for our club to sign players from other clubs that actually have the fans scratching their heads as to how they let them go... usually we're the club that's happening to.

Warriors lose Seluini but secure Godinet
9/30/2010 11:24 AM
They've lost Junior Warriors star Nafe Seluini to Penrith but have secured promising Auckland Vulcans halfback Pita Godinet.
The Warriors may have lost star Toyota Cup hooker Nafe Seluini to Penrith on a two year deal but have secured young halfback Pita Godinet .
Godinet, who played for the Auckland Vulcans has signed an NRL first grade training contract with the Warriors.
Godinet has been described by Aussie scouts as potentially the New South Wales Cup's best kept secret.
He scored 22 tries this season, even though he missed a month of football with a broken jaw.
This may partly explain why the Warriors didn't try harder to keep him. Mara is the Warriors hooker of the future and Godinet is an explosive half/hooker. While I'm annoyed we lost Seluini, can't blame him for taking his chances elsewhere.
If he keeps his head down and works hard he'll be a star.
