St George Illawarra have landed a huge recruitment scalp by securing Australian star Keaon Koloamatangi to a long term near $5 million deal.
It is understood that Koloamatangi has told the Dragons he will join the club from 2027 on a five year deal. The contract is now in the cooling off period.
It is a clear circuit breaker for the Dragons who were in the market for a marquee player.
Koloamatangi’s current club South Sydney wanted to secure him as did Parramatta.
The Dragons though look set to land the prized recruit after gazumping the Eels and Rabbitohs with a monster five year deal
MORE TO COME

How and why would he go to the Dragons over us we must suck
Because of money 💰 longer deal, and he can probably get away with things
Yep, the Dragons do suck. They've made the finals once in ten years. But Koloamatangi doesn't care about that, he is a professional, meaning he is motivated by money. Dragons made the biggest offer. That's why he's going there.
Exactly. Cant see his inclusion in the Dragons team making them a premiership winning team
Which is great he didn't go to a team like dogs or roosters. He will be completely irrelevant at saints and we don't have to worry about him 😂😂
Highly overrated in my opinion
No but I can promise you, he will be the first of a few others to jump to the dragons. Good players attract other good players. Shit players don't attract anything but flies.
Flanno may not be as good as Ryles but he understands what is required to win a premiership and he's going balls to the wall to make it happen.
They've already gone out and bought Gutho Val Cookie and now Keon on decent money. It takes more then just buying random players to build a culture. Their halves are Atkinson and Flanno and 35 year old Gutho is the fullback 😂 club is going nowhere
Haha true.. did you see how Gutherson got ran around easily in every game. Gutherson is a desperate buy and on close to a million.
Dragons are a basket case. Flanno is at desperation stakes to save himself. Almost got the spoon this season
That's exactly what it is, he's looking to buy any name value player he can and hope it turns the club around. But it takes alot more then that to change a club
