WELCOME BACK CARTER

Utility forward Paul Carter is set to make a return to the NRL this season after agreeing to join South Sydney on a two-year deal.

Both the Rabbitohs and Storm were in the running to sign the former Titans forward, with the defending premiers winning the race to his signature this week.

Foxsports.com.au understands Carter and his manager met with the NRL last month to sound out the possibility of him signing with a club before the June 30 deadline.

Carter will join the Redfern based club for the remainder of 2015 and 2016 with the view to the NRL hopefully registering the deal.

While out of the game, Carter has undergone counselling to address his issues with alcohol and the NRL was satisfied with Carter’s progress, clearing the way for him to sign a new deal.

The 23-year-old had his contract with the Gold Coast torn up last year following two drink-driving offences within six months.

The former Australian Schoolboy made his NRL debut in 2014, playing 21 games and is the son of Penrith legend Steve Carter.

PANTHERS SNARE EELS YOUNG GUN

Penrith have secured a quality signing for next season, snaring Holden Cup gun Zach Dockar-Clay from Western Sydney rivals Parramatta on a two-year deal.

Capable of playing both halfback and hooker, Panthers general manager of football Phil Gould said that the 20-year-old has been on his radar for some time.

“We have been watching Zach’s development for a number of seasons,” Gould said.

“He has indicated a desire to concentrate on developing his NRL prospects as a hooker and I honestly believe this young man is a long-term NRL player.”

Dockar-Clay was a member of the Junior Kiwis in 2013 and 2014, and captained the side against the Junior Kangaroos last month.

Dockar-Clay’s exit from the Eels comes as a result of the NRL pathway being blocked by Nathan Peats, Kieran Foran and Corey Norman.

SNAKE WANTS ANOTHER

The re-signing of Daly Cherry-Evans hasn’t stopped Brett Stewart from wanting to extend his current deal until the end of 2017, according to Channel 9 reporter Danny Weidler.

The extra season is expected to act as his last before he enters retirement.

The 30-year-old is under contract until 2016 but wants to remain a one-club man.

Penrith have a battle on their hands to retain Sika Manu for next season with South Sydney, St George Illawarra and Cronulla all vying for the off-contract forward’s services.

Big League Magazine reports the Rabbitohs are in the box seat with coach Michael Maguire keen to link back up with the man he worked under while an assistant at the Storm in 2009.

We are hearing Roosters prop Sam Moa and winger Nene Macdonald could end up at the Panthers next season.

While Moa is under contract until the end of 2016, rumour has it the club will be willing to release the 28-year-old Kiwi to take up a long term deal at the foot of the mountains.
