Roosters release Perrett to join Bulldogs

Sam Perrett

Perrett signs with Dogs until 2015

Sam Perrett has finally been granted a release to join the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs immediately.

The Sydney Roosters issued a statement to announce they had reluctantly agreed to grant the New Zealand winger an immediate release, despite desperately hoping Perrett would reconsider his decision to part ways with the Bondi club early.

Perrett has now signed with the Bulldogs on a deal that will keep him at Belmore until the end of 2015.

The 27-year-old met with Roosters chief executive Steve Noyce yesterday morning, where the club urged him to reconsider his decision to leave in the middle of the 2012 premiership.

However, with Perrett not in their future plans beyond this season, the club eventually agreed to release him from the remainder of his contract with the club.
