Morgue renews and Pearce joins

 A busy couple of weeks for the club between the last round of domestic matches and the Superleague fixtures coming out. 

Firstly we saw a welcome contract extension for Arthur Morgue. Considering the elusive and evasive running style of the "death man" I am impressed we got him cornered and sat at a desk to sign the thing. 

As Samkins starts to see the end of his playing career on the horizon I hope we see even more of this lad in 2022. 

I see it as an Obi Wan, Luke sort of relationship developing. 

This morning the announcement was made that Mitchell Pearce would be joining us from Newcastle Knights. 

He is a big name in the NRL and if he can produce as he did in that competition will be more than adequate a replacement for Jimmy Maloney. 

I am sure it a coincidence he joins from the Knights, but in my mind Scott Dureau will have been in his ear for months telling him that Argeles beach will be as good as home. 

I hope he goes well.
