ST George Illawarra coach Wayne Bennett has retained most of his squad of players for next season, with the Dragons focusing on retention rather than recruitment.
With a large turnover of players in his first full season in control of the club, Bennett has stuck solid with this squad as he hopes to build on this year's achievements, highlighted by the minor premiership.
From Saturday night's 17-man squad only Justin Poore (joining the Eels) will definitely not be at the club next season and the future of Wendell Sailor remains unclear.
Sailor, 35, may have played his last game of rugby league as he contemplates retirement.
The club have secured Ben Creagh, Dean Young, Brett Morris, Beau Scott and Dan Hunt to long-term contracts.
Two new players, Peni Tagive (Wests Tigers) and Michael Greenfield (South Sydney), will join the club next season.
Tagive, 20, is a towering outside back who has played eight first-grade games. He has missed the majority of this season with a shoulder injury.
Greenfield, 24 a former Sharks prop, has been plagued by injuries in recent seasons. After making his NRL debut in 2004 at Cronulla, he has played only 24 matches.
