Cronulla hopeful on Segeyaro

Cronulla coach Shane Flanagan is hopeful hooker James Segeyaro will sign with the club sooner rather than later.

Segeyaro controversially walked out on Leeds at the end of 2016.

The Sharks are on the hunt for a hooker to replace the retired Michael Ennis.

“I’d like to think we could acquire James Segeyaro in the near future,” Flanagan told NRL.com

“He needs to sort out what he’s doing with Leeds, but I’m hopeful he will be at the Sharks sooner rather than later.”
