Former Kangaroos prop Jason Ryles will join his third NRL club in 2012 after signing a one-year deal with Melbourne Storm.

Ryles was told he wasn't part of Sydney Roosters' plans for 2012 late in the season, forcing the former St George Illawarra front-rower to find a new home.

"We were looking for an experienced front rower to complete our front row roster and when we heard Jason was available we moved quickly to secure his signature," Melbourne’s General manager of football operations Frank Ponissi said.

"Melbourne Storm has a strong record of signing experienced front rowers to play alongside a number of specifically earmarked development players, to create a well balanced playing list.

"The most important factor with Jason was his desire to play with Melbourne Storm and our key staff has been extremely impressed with his attitude. We know he is proven club contributor both on and off the field, fitting perfectly into our current recruitment policy."

Good move for Ryles !
 
Should be a good signing for both parties concerned, hopefully he gives a couple of penalties when we play them :slight_smile:
 
Ryles still has good go forward and good work ethic
His last month at the Roosters was pretty damn good actually I thought

I think he will do well under Bellamy Bellamy won't put up with the stupid penalties
 
Good pick up, the Storm need a front rower who can lead their pack and offer some experience. It was probably what cost them the comp this year.
 
imo sucks for them.
i know he was one of the more consitent roosters this year but i think he's way past it.
penalty machine as mentioned.

i think the roosters will struggle next year.
from 8 to 17 excluding jake friend are all more than likely attack players.
weak defenders.
