Sua re signs.

[dungay dragon]

Unfortunately the bunker crueled the Titans so we drop to 9th with the Knights taking 8th spot.

He dropped the ball Dave ..Replays confirmed
Titans led 24-10 ...no one to blame but themselves ...

 

[dungay dragon]

Well finally, the deal has been done. Good work Dragons and good to know that Su'A will be a Dragon for the next couple of years. Flanno is sorting the squad out and more to happen which will be something to look forward to.

Yep
Wonderful (re) signing and may inspire others
Would love to see him as a future Captain and leader when BH calls time

 

[justadragon]

I thought Su'a was offered 3 years, but only a 2year extension, looks like Flanno is getting his way on a few things.

 

[SnowDragon]

So good to wake up to this. He is a real leader, plays with heart. Perfect guy to mentor and push the young guys coming thru

 

[Dragons4me]

Finally a good (no great) news Dragons story! So happy he's signed on again and I agree, very much a future captain.

Hearing Eels Tallagi close to signing with us
Interesting with the offer on the table for Sloan
Lawrie to Eels ... maybe ..
Bit of a merry go round between the two Clubs at present
Really like the Titans youngster Prop Josiah Pahulu ...Just 20 and has all the "tools"
Love to snare him .........

You hope or you know that Blocker has had a offer from the Eels

 

[Saints Forever]

I hope he has

we want volunteers, not prisoners

 

[Auntie.Gerald]

Could be a Year 3 MO
Not clear yet

Great news. He is playing like a marquee player this year and must be in calculations for state of origin.

 

[TheRev]

I like 2yrs for all parties.. means he can negotiate with other clubs end of next year still.. he will still be in his prime and can shoot for a longer contract.. we will have more of an idea where the club is heading.. and how well a few of our prospects are going (Ryan, Nick, Jacob etc)...

Im sure we will pay him well for a 2yr deal also.. we have the money now, but it will be become more and more important every subsequent year... assuming we have improved our roster by then.. and our money will be tighter.

 

[redV06]

I’d say he has the player option for a 3rd year.

 

[SEAT 1A]

Great news. He is playing like a marquee player this year and must be in calculations for state of origin.

The time it took for the club to get over the line shows he a marquee signing.

Huge difference between his and JDB and Bird's.

 

[TruSaint]

Now, just make him Captain please.

 

[kit66]

2 years is good for him and the club, his value might rise before he signs his next contract, that's good for him, and we get to assess his progress and our needs before we need to talk to his manager again. We also get a great 2nd rower in his prime.
Now sign Talagi, look after Sloan and sign O'Sullivan to keep the ball rolling.

 

[Blood Shot Eyes]

Great signing for us.....wasn't sure which way he would go..........obviously happy with the future direction of the coach AND the team.....always a good sign when a player is in good form not just for a contract extension but for opposition players to witness hes content where he is for future possible signings under Flanno when he would be attracting interest from other clubs

 

[Victoire]

I dont know if it was tongue-in-cheek or not, but on Instagram the video the club used to trumpet the re-signing was Flanno announcing it to the team, followed by Su'a giving a little speech (with his mouthguard still in lol??) where he also said to great cheers "I just want to let you know that I'll be the captain next year as well"

Definitely tongue in cheek but I'd happily take him up on the offer. I think he'd be a great captain.
Also did I notice a very reserved, almost sulky looking JDB up the back.? Certainly didn't seem to be joining in with the team spirit......

 

[dungay dragon]

From memory he recently resigned prior to Flanno era DP
Flanno weeding out a certain group
Yep , hoping..ineffective this season

I’m hoping too DD. Like Dan Hunt a couple of years back the game has passed him bye.

And to nail the contracts just right with the elite youth coming through

so many back rowers and developing super quickly

they won’t sign on if road blocked
