Francis Molo has been granted an immediate release from his Dragons contract and will link up with the Dolphins. According to The Sydney Morning Herald, the club made a decision at a board meeting on Tuesday, with the front-rower free to leave after a lengthy dispute. Molo had not attended St George Illawarra training for a number of weeks and has not featured in the side's first two games of the season. It has been reported that Molo will be forced to repay a six-figure sum to the Dragons. The 30-year-old had previously extended his deal with the Red V until the end of next season, but will now head to Redcliffe on a multi-year agreement. It's believed a rift between Molo and the club stemmed from a comment relating to alcohol, which the former State of Origin enforcer has abstained from in recent years. It's a major boost for the Dolphins, who are still without Tom Flegler due to injury and aren't expecting the front-rower back until later in the season. St George Illawarra last week signed David Klemmer until the end of 2025, while also releasing Fijian winger Mikaele Ravalawa to the Rabbitohs.
