Confirmed

Happy with Prior two year deal is a good move for all parties.We need another prop imo and we look a whole lot better than the past 2 seasons squad wise.

Decent signing, but I hope he's Peteru's replacement, and not Merrin's

This.

The club basically confirmed that in their statement that they wanted them to play alongside each other

Que.GH. Whilst wed of liked them to play together it hasn't worked that way. But Matt Prior is an excellent singing and we have cap space during the season should the right calibre of player become available.

Interesting that they're talking about cap space during the season as opposed to before it? Sound as if we're going to kick off the year with space on the cap.

If the right player type of player isn't available now to sign then there is no point in making a signing for the sake of it.

Glad its 2 years and not the previously reported 3.

Agreed

Good signing. Will be one of the best front rowers in SL imo.

An bang average prop in his time for the Sharkies, he'll probably look good over here!

I think the loiners will struggle to replace Merrin at such short notice though, maybe they'll get someone in mid-season.
