The Knights have revealed another significant addition to their 2008 playing roster, announcing a three year deal with utility forward, Chris Houston.
The St George Illawarra rookie has agreed to terms with the Knights for three years and will wear the blue and red until at least the end of the 2010 season.
“Chris offers plenty as a football player,” said Knights Coach, Brian Smith.
“He’s 194 centimetres, 22 years of age, he cracked first grade this season and has versatility. He can play from front row back to lock.
“We also feel Chris has a lot to offer off the field.
“He’s a very intelligent bloke, very well presented and there are people at the St George Illawarra club who felt he was a potential leader, possibly even captain material.”
