Dave Donaghy was just on the Breakfast Club on RSN927 and he said Drinkwater had re-signed for 2 years.

Thanks, hope it's true now. Never trust it until the club confirms it though.

So if the article is correct, we've extended Sandor Earl for another year too.

Agree never trust it completely until the club confirms but at the same time I think it's just a formality now. Also with Cam and also Munster..... Ok the latter might take a while to happen but as I mentioned earlier in this thread I just don't think there's any way he won't re-sign and that was before he was named POTY last night. Couldn't be more confident

Massive signing. We have locked this core group of youngsters in for the long-term and banking on them continuing to develop. Exciting times ahead.

Keeping Nelson for 5 more seasons is a pretty ridiculous coup for the club.

Glad we've been able to keep Drinkwater. He is going to eventually snatch someone's job.
