Maybe…

25

It’s official. Panthers announce Nathan Cleary has signed to a 5 year deal ending 2024.

26

… tell 'em the price son ! :thinking:

  anything left ?
27

Ivan Cleary didnt win us a comp before he was sacked…hasnt exactly set the world on fire at the tigers…can really understand why everyone seems so keen to have him back. Is he part of a package and the only way we could keep Nathan at the club. If so its not good business.

28

Champ, I’m a little suspicious. Press are normally all over signings.
How much, over how long, his girlfriends favourite tv show etc etc.

So, how much? Not a snippet !

List is also updated to reflect the 2019 Season. As you can see there are quite a few names off contract this coming season.

Steve, thanks mate for keeping the listing updated - much appreciated.

Penrith Panthers have confirmed that Waqa Blake has signed on for another 5 seasons.

Waqa Blake >>> Contract Ends 2023 (Re-signed)

36

happy with this provided he gets a haircut !!! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

37

Great news. Waqa has come a long way from his ‘Edward-scissorhands’ days just a few short seasons ago.

He has potential this boy, and will soon be one of the star centres in the NRL. He will have a great 2019!

Ivan Cleary (Coach) >>> Contract Ends 2023 (New Contract)

Haven’t seen an official announcement from the club but today’s Top 30 squad announcement confirms that we have signed Tyrell Fuimaono from Souths.

41

From what I have rad their is no indication of contract length, so it may only be for this season. For this reason for now I have put in the the list as expiring this coming season.

I have also marked the 2019 Top 30 players with a star indicating their status.

Also you may only noticed 29 players have been announced. The blank spot I believe is for Sam McKendry who is weighing up if the will continue his career or call it a day.

42

… if Sam retires who is next in line for ‘longest’ serving player mantle ?

Continious Service at Panthers

Year Started Player
2012 Josh Mansour
2013 Sam McKendry
2014 Isaah Yeo
2014 Dallin Watene-Zelezniak

Sam McKendry started in 2008. I’m not 100% over how the NRL long serving player discount works, but I don’t think any of the players mentioned above are eligible yet (I think it’s 10 years service in FG).

I’ll look into it.
