Player Agent Blasts Dragons' Handling of Young Talent

The St. George Illawarra Dragons are in the market for a new halfback, but according to player agent Braith Anasta, one of the NRL's top young prospects seems unlikely to be interested in joining the struggling team.

Anasta, who manages the futures of both current Dragons squad member Lachlan Ilias and Melbourne Storm playmaker Jonah Pezet, questioned the Dragons' continued selection of Kyle Flanagan in a losing side. Ilias, who joined the Dragons from the Rabbitohs in the off-season, has won 10 of 11 games in the NSW Cup, but has been unable to break into the first-grade team.

"It's very rare that a NSW Cup team wins 10 out of 11 games and the first grade team continues to lose and there are no changes, what hope do you have?" Anasta said.

Meanwhile, Pezet's future is also in doubt after Melbourne Storm halfback Jahrome Hughes re-signed with the club until 2030. This is understood to have activated a contract release clause for the 22-year-old Pezet, who is currently stuck behind Hughes, Cameron Munster, and Tyran Wishart in the Storm lineup. Given this situation, it seems highly unlikely that Pezet would be interested in taking a number behind Kyle Flanagan at the struggling Dragons.
