Nightingale staying with Dragons

April 30, 2008 ST George Illawarra winger Jason Nightingale has agreed to terms with the NRL club for three years until the end of the 2011 season.

The local junior was part of the Dragons' premiership-winning Jersey Flegg team in 2005 and scored a try in his NRL debut against Penrith in round eight last year.

Nightingale, 21, is the club's leading try scorer in 2008, with five, and is a contender for a New Zealand Test debut for the Centenary clash next Friday.

"I'm very excited to know that I will be staying at the Dragons," Nightingale said.

"As a local junior I grew up watching and admiring the Dragons and have been very happy throughout my time here to date.

"Being off contract at the end of this year wasn't something I was really worried about. I have just been concentrating on playing consistent footy each week, but, in saying this, it is nice to know that my immediate future is sorted."

Very good, solid player. Doesn't make a mistake, great in the air, good defensively. Good re-signing for them.

I think it was against the cowboys a couple of rounds ago he took a bomb and came down, landed straight on his two feet, continued down into an asian squat and planted the ball down between his legs for a try. I thought it was HILARIOUS, hes so awkward but very effective
