Canberra Raiders prop Paul Vaughan will join the St George Illawarra Dragons after accepting a three-year deal.

Kieran Foran’s pending NRL return for the Warriors could ultimately deliver St George Illawarra a bolt of good fortune.

If Kieran Foran gets approval from the NRLto play next year, Lolohea will have his path blocked by one of the best players in the game and his agent has indicated he would be willing to leave the Warriors.

“He doesn’t want to leave and until the Foran situation is sorted out there is nothing I can do,” Lolohea’s agent Stan Martin told The Daily Telegraph.

“It depends on Kieran, it really does. Tui wants to stay, he doesn’t want to go.

“But at the end of the day if pathways get closed he also knows that he has got a talent and he can go and ply his trade somewhere else.”

One club in dire need of a boost to their halves is the St George Illawarra Dragons. The club decided not to re-sign Benji Marshall and have an opening alongside England International Gareth Widdop.

Martin said Lolohea no longer wants to be known as a utility player. Asked what his preferred position was, Martin said: “Five-eighth. “So if Kieran comes and Kieran goes to five-eighth Tui will certainly not be here.”

"He was a try-scoring machine, but fuck his defence was deplorable. Just imagine where Semi would be sitting on this list is he'd have stayed in League..."

They are losing Lolohoea and may only get Foran for one year

  I can't stand Benchi but in a team where he doesn't have to try to win the game single handily each week I reckon he'd still have something to offer . If this Hunt rumours a myth I'd rather a Norman / Marshal combo than a Norman / Gutho
