He is available for 2007 at this point unless signed up between now and June 30, 2006 by the Dragons.

[DIEHARD]

How lucky are we that we didn't have to wait until half way through the year for this fantastic news!

I think having him on board will also help bring other players to the Titans come June 30.

Prince takes punt on Gold Coast
Date: 03/03/06
By Daniel Pace



Scott Prince's manager says the Wests Tigers captain has risked his NRL career by agreeing to a four-year deal with the Gold Coast Titans.

Steve Robinson also pleaded with the Titans to aggressively chase more top class internationals to build on their current roster for the 2007 season and beyond.

Halfback Prince, 26, told his Tigers teammates and coach Tim Sheens he would return to Queensland when his contract with the premiers finishes at the end of this season.

The Clive Churchill medallist has agreed to a deal worth a reported $1.4 million - about $100,000 less per season than he would receive at the Tigers.

"There's a lot of pressure now on him to keep his career on track," Robinson told AAP.

"He's never been short of a challenge. He knows he's putting his career on the line."

Robinson implored the Titans to further boost their depth following the recruitment of internationals Luke Bailey and Brian Carney and Penrith five-eighth Preston Campbell, who will partner Prince in the halves next year.

"We just hope these guys (the Titans), through getting Scott's signature, can now find and sign some reasonably good players to go with it," Robinson added.

"You'd like to think they can now start to really push ahead to build on what they've got.

"It'll be a little disappointing if they don't but we can't do much about that at this stage.

"That's up to the club to do the right thing."

Robinson insisted money was never an issue for Prince in joining the fledgling Gold Coast franchise.

"I never had to go in and bang any tables talking about dollars and cents," Robinson pointed out.

"I only spoke to the Titans yesterday about dollars and cents and how long's this (the negotiations) been going on?

"The money is there but it's not the issue. The money he's been offered from both places is comparable to his standing in the game."

The Tigers gave Prince permission to negotiate with the three Queensland clubs to sort out his future before the season started on March 10 but Brisbane and North Queensland dropped out of the race after expressing concerns over the negotiation process.

Prince, who had stints with both the Broncos and the Cowboys before signing with Wests at the end of 2003, has always said he wants to move back to Queensland.

"In the end the Sydney way of things ... I wouldn't say it's been difficult but he's never really wanted to live here," Robinson said.

"The Wests Tigers have been terrific to him, no question about it, and I think they've been good for each other.

"But there's always going to be a winner and a loser and the lure to come back to Queensland was too strong.

"There's nothing down here that he's got any problems with other than Sydney itself.

"Club-wise, player-wise, coach-wise, there's nothing here at the Tigers you can put a finger on why he's going home."
