AUSTRALIAN international and State of Origin prop forward Josh Perry joined Saints on a three-year contract from 2011.
The 30-year-old made 234 appearances in his NRL career, playing for Newcastle Knights from 2000 to 2007 and was recently with Manly Sea Eagles.
The six foot 1, 114 kg forward made his NRL debut in 2000 for the Knights against New Zealand Warriors before spending seven successful years at the club.
He then moved to Manly and has made 59 appearances for the Sea Eagles, adding five tries to the 15 he notched for the Knights.
His first season at the club was curtailed by injury but he made 12 appearances to show fans his potential.
A hamstring problem eventually ended his campaign but he did return in 2012 to drive the pack forward.
