FOREVER IN OUR HEART: St George Illawarra Dragon Star Player Dies In A Car Accident.
Shane Flanagan has secured his latest recruit for the St George Illawarra Dragons, with the club confirming the signature of Ronald Volkman.
The 21-year-old half joins from the New Zealand Warriors where he made his NRL debut in 2022.
He has played five first-grade games and starred for the Warriors’ reserve-grade team last season.

Ronald Volkman inks deal with Dragons for 2024 NRL season
Volkman has signed a one-year contract with St George Illawarra.
He will likely be the side’s starting five-eighth and partner veteran halfback Ben Hunt in the middle of the park.
The Dragons are considerably thin in the halves following the deregistration of Junior Amone and the departure of Jayden Sullivan to the Wests Tigers
“Ronald is a valuable pick-up for us at this stage of the pre-season and bolsters a position where we are currently in need of some more depth,” new coach Flanagan said.
“The extra competition for spots will strengthen the entire squad while he also adds depth to our goal-kicking options.”
