More excellent news. I’m also quietly confident about Grace - I don’t think the club would have said what they did about being determined to keep him the other day if it was true that he’s definitely on his way.
I get the same vibe too but we will see. He was on the list of OOC players who have sorted their futures too so clearly something will be announced soon.
As for Passi, great news, he's been our best forward this season. Absolutely fantastic to have the main core of our pack signed up for next season.

To be fair, if you remember back 12 months ago, the same things were said about Coote and Fages and to a lesser extent Bentley - “we really want them to stay “ - I really do hope we manage to keep Grace as he has the blistering pace so lacking in many teams (apart from Wigan).
I think what was said about Coote and Fages was subtly different. It was more along the lines of 'we'd love them to stay, but it's a salary capped sport etc. etc.'. Basically it was a euphemistic way of saying that if money didn't matter we'd keep them at the club but money does matter so we're letting them go. This was more like 'We're determined to keep him and we're confident he'll stay'.
Love it.
Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.
The way Paasi has kept improving this year has he peaked yet, or can we expect more? Great news.
Ain't no Paasi like an S club Paasi.
Love it Iggy!
The way he’s playing this is brilliant news.
Excellent work from the club once more, following the signings of Lees, Welsby and Mata’utia, another important cog in the machine.
Another important retention and great work from the club.
Interestingly, Paasi said in his interview his manager is speaking to Mike Rush as he wants to stay for longer. I think Paasi is just coming into his peak and we could get his best years of that's the case.
Fantastic signing and another one we've done really well to keep hold of. Brilliant work from the club.
His new profile pic on the Saints site is boss:
Looks like a 70's porn star
He's not the Messiah, he's a naughty boy.
