Roosters sign Nutley for two years
August 15, 2006 - 1:59PM
The Sydney Roosters have signed former Cronulla and Queensland Origin prop Danny Nutley to a two-year deal with the NRL club.
Nutley was granted a release from the final two years of his contract with English Super League side Castleford after citing his desire the return to Australia with his young family.
"After re-signing (with Castleford), the enormity of being there for another three years hit home, and after giving the matter a great deal of thought, as a family, we have decided to return home," Nutley said.
The 31-year-old joins fellow forward Nate Myles as big-name additions to the Roosters pack for next season, countering the loss of Great Britain Test prop Adrian Morley back to England.
"I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to join the Roosters for their 100th season in 2007 and excited at the chance to play with a blend of exciting young players and experienced campaigners like Craig Fitzgibbon, Craig Wing, Chris Flannery and Amos Roberts," said Danny Nutley.
