2 years with an option both ways for a 3rd year.
Albeit a decent player 4 years at his age is ridiculous.
We will be giving Lisone 4 years next

Agree
Even though he is a decent player he's hardly a Keith Senior or Newman.
Can only assume we have got him on a reasonable deal.

Did you mean to put Newlove there?

I wouldnt say that Newman is that much better than MacDonald, has potential for sure but a lot to prove.

No one wanted him in Aus came to championship club who didn't want to keep him we give him 4 year deal he's ordinary at best when you think of Godden, Blackmore ,Innes,Senior not even as good as Iro who was crocked.

Half of super league is ordinary if you compare them to players of the past

Also Leigh did want to keep him but they had too many overseas players.

If they rated him that highly he'd be still there its that simple my point is that the club no longer have the lure of attracting bigger name players or willing to pay either so that's where we're at 4 years I'm sure he'll bag a hat trick to celebrate.

Iro wasn't 'crocked' at Leeds. He played 124 games in about 4 seasons for us and played 3 seasons for Sts three years after leaving Leeds. On his day he was awesome. On others he was very average.

I couldn’t care less what Leigh think of him. He’s out player and can be a game changer, so worth a long deal imho….
Good age too
