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

We are turning into the Dragons where go for players and get nothing. Dragons may land Taulagi now too.
We are being used by many agents as a pawn to up prices. Media also bring us up even if interested or not.
Thing is Fong, if MON is to leave, I would bet it is a $1.01 favourite that Ben Rogers gets the gig. Just rinse and repeat.
Why Frankie you know as well as anyone there protected you no it so why is anything the media do going to put them out of a job when the club constitution protects them like it did McElduff.I'd be shocked if anyone on our board is outted over continued under performance in recruiting top tier talent.
This is the price we pay as a club for having the BS go on before hand and now we are stuck in the space we are in now.
Biggest mistake was those grubs ousting fitzy. Love him or hate him fitzy knew how to run a club. I said back in 09 when fitzy was ousted be careful what you wish for.
They even went after allan overton just went to show how clueless and dopey they and some of our supporters are
The problem with fitzy was he had too much power, he controlled the footy club and the leagues club as well as being the club ceo on a big salary, on top of that he was caught giving Asian members vouchers for the Chinese restaurant in return for votes.
How many years was it between 1986 and 09. So you say he should be here . You're kidding yourself
is that the same fitzgerald who didnt want fittler or gene miles and forgot to fax lockyer a contract so he signed with the donkeys a week later ?
You piss me off when we always lose a singing.
What the hell is wrong with this club honestly, we were favourites for Galvin, Pezet and Keaon and we managed to stuff it all up. We currently have no backline depth with Lomax leaving and Russell soon to be leaving and all we have signed is Brian Kelly, that's not even confirmed yet. And we are still fiddling around with this five-eight bullshit after Pezet leaves. We haven't signed anyone for 27. We sure as shit not signing Tino and probably won't even sign Murray Taulagi or Jason Purdure.
