Our new Tongan Powerhouse, Agnatius Paasi has arrived in St Helens and has already started pre-season training with Saints and despite the cold weather, 'Iggy' admits the Club feels like "home" and can't wait to get going before hopefully meeting the fans!
Paasi arrived in just after Christmas and yesterday took part in his first field session with the Saints as he looks to build his fitness ahead of his debut season in Super League.
The Saints sealed the signature of Paasi last year ahead of the 2021 season and he now joins Joel Thompson in the UK who started his personal pre-season work at Saints before Christmas. Dan Norman is also now settling in to life in St Helens whilst our final recruit Sione Mata’utia is hoping to land in the coming weeks ahead of the new season.
