DEAN Pay has continued an impressive roster rebuild of the Bulldogs by signing rising Penrith star Corey Harawira-Naera.

The 23-year-old Panthers backrower will depart the foot of the mountains after signing a four-year deal with Canterbury.

The Panthers 2017 Rookie of The Year, Harawira Naera has played 44 matches over the past two seasons.

Earmarked by Kiwis coach Michael Maguire as a future New Zealand international, Harawira-Naera will bolster a Dogs pack which in 2019 will include representative forwards David Klemmer, Josh Jackson and Raymond Faitala-Mariner.

Harawira-Naera’s signing continues Pay’s promising rebuild of the club in the wake of major salary cap restrictions and the mid-year departure’s of Aaron Woods and Moses Mbye.

The Dogs will also welcome Jack Cogger (Knights), Sausao Sue (Tigers), Christian Chrichton (Panthers), Nick Meaney (Knights) and Chris Smith (Roosters) in 2019.

Can he play Centre?
He has played there before, but honestly i have no idea how we're going to fit Jackson, Martin, RFM, Elliott and CHN into the same backrow lol.

Imagine a backrow of RFM , CHN and jackson. Wow. And then you would have elliot and martin coming off the bench.
Also interesting its a 4 year deal. Martin is only here for another year........

Quality signing, still worried about the backline though.

Still praying for a few things - that we can somehow find a decent 9 and get rid of Foran to free up more money.

He is a very good pick up by the Bulldogs.
You’ll have an exciting pack next year. Just need a couple of outside backs & the 8 is on the cards.
