Dragons sign Musgrove and release Burgess

St George Illawarra have secured the services of Wests Tigers forward Zane Musgrove ahead of the Dragons' 2023 NRL Telstra Premiership campaign.

Musgrove, who was released from the Tigers to sign with the Red V, has played 62 first grade games following his 2016 NRL debut.

The 26-year-old Samoan international joins the Dragons on a two-year deal following the most productive season of his career to date.

Complementing the squad's depth in the forwards was a key contributor to Musgrove's signing, according to Dragons general manager of football, Ben Haran.

"Zane is an established NRL player with a strong physical presence and will be a great addition to our forward pack," Haran said.

 "We've been looking to build our forward pack and we're excited to see Zane join the Dragons."

St George Illawarra can also confirm George Burgess has been released from the remainder of his playing contract at the Dragons.

Burgess joined the Dragons ahead of the 2022 NRL Telstra Premiership season and played four NRL games for the Red V.

The Dragons thank George for his contribution to St George Illawarra and wish him all the best in his future endeavours.

Additional signings as well as the club's 2023 train and triallists will be announced in the coming weeks, ahead of mid-November's pre-season commencement.
