The Cowboys are close to signing Warriors prop Jamayne Taunoa-Brown on a two-year deal.The 24-year-old former Indigenous All Stars forward was contracted to the Warriors for next season but wanted longer-term security.The Cowboys were prepared to offer that in the shape of a two-year deal with an option for a third season.The Warriors wanted to retain the big prop but salary-cap issues forced their hand."Unfortunately we were unable to offer him a contract beyond 2022 so, with his best interests in mind, we've reluctantly agreed to let him go so he can accept a long-term offer for his future and security," Warriors recruitment boss Peter O'Sullivan said."It's unfortunate to lose Jamayne as we have seen him progress from the Intrust Super Cup at Brisbane Norths to train and trial then a top-30 contract, but we couldn't stand in his way of accepting such a good offer considering our current crop of middles."We thank him for his efforts and wish him well moving forward."A former Warriors rookie of the year, Taunoa-Brown will add strike power to the Cowboys pack.
