Try 425k

...but instead committed to the Panthers for $740,000 over the next two years.

$740k over two years - you do the maths! :roll:

Civoniceva to join Panthers
Written by: League news
June 28th, 2007

Penrith have confirmed the signing of Test prop Petero Civoniceva for two years.

Civoniceva has agreed to join Penrith next season after a decade at Brisbane. The Queensland State of Origin forward says he is excited about the new challenge at the Panthers, with the deal extending until the end of 2009 with an option for a third season.

Penrith general manager Michael Leary says securing Civoniceva is a huge boost for the club who this week granted captain Craig Gower a release to play rugby union in France next year.

This is a good article, I strongly agree that all players at the panthers will be stoked to play along side a legend of the game as we alla are.
I'm in two minds if I like a player walking into the captaincy from another club when other players have been at our club longer & put their heart in to the game, present season unfortunately excluded, but Petro is a symbol of leadership, power & respect, he will get the young guys playing out of their skin, I am forseeing our youngsters taking their game to the next level.
Great signing
