Loko Jnr Pasifiki Tonga has officially closed a chapter on his demands for an early release from St George Illawarra by signing a new three-year deal. But since Flanagan’s exit the prop has gone on to become a mainstay of the youthful pack deployed by Dean Young. “I’m really excited to be extending my time here at the Dragons under Dean Young,” Pasifiki Tonga said. “I’ve been at the Dragons since I was 17 years old; I’ve grown up here and I’ve built a lot of relationships. “Extending Loko was a priority for the club and we’re thrilled to have got it done,” said Dragons chief executive Tim Watsford.
