The Dragons are reportedly set to offer South Sydney’s Test enforcer Keaon Koloamatangi a mega $5 million deal to join the club after striking out on a number of high-profile stars.

Koloamatangi is off-contract in 2026 and has been linked with the Raiders and Eels, but the Dragons are bidding to come over the top with a monster offer.

I see everyone is excited about Keon. He is 27 I think, another year at bunnies makes him at least 28 when he comes on at year deal, meaning over 33 at the end. Makes me think…
Yeah i'd rather a 4 year deal with mutual option for the 5th year but i don't think he'll drop off massively when he's 33. JWH for Roosters was good at 35. So i don't really mind offering Keaon a 5 year deal.

5yrs does seem a little too much at his age, let's hope they can push for an early release.
I assume it would still be for 5 years.
Chammas said close to 5mil for 5 years. what does that mean 950k, that sounds fair.

Not saying he won't stay at the Bunnies, but no decision has been made yet, according to what I've heard.

Can't see the Bunnies letting him go.

We have thrown some big cards on the table however, he holds some to.

He's in demand but we haven't been shy.

Who knows, it may not work out but it's a massive offer.

Wonder if it’s 5yrs 2026 starting
Or 4 years 2027 starting?
And or MO or CO final year of contract ?

even if 5years starting 2027 doesn’t that make him 32yrs old in final year of contract ? Which is fine for most props of high level

I don't think we will know of these details until they make an official offer.

He does have a motor worth risking it for
My head says we won’t get him
My heart says please let us sign a good one 🙏

We need a forward signing and he could be the one to lead the pack. We know it is going to take something over to get it done.good luck to him to be the one who benefits. He would bring lots to our team and may start the roll of players to follow. I hope he comes

With all due respect, why do you it yourself ? If supporting the club creates so much angst for people whats the point ?

Someone told him that the JV would be stripped of the licence by the end of 2025 and it be handed to St George, so he still thinks he's going to get his team back. Only a few weeks to go before he has to find another fantasy while he despises the club.
