SUPERCOACH Wayne Bennett has signed a three-year contract to coach St George Illawarra in the NRL from next season.
The six-time premiership winning coach reached an agrrement with the club yesterday and the contract was rubber stamped by the board late last night.
The club is expected to call a press conference later today to make the appointment official.
St George Illawarra will become Bennett's third NRL club following on from a short stint with teh Canberra Raiders before two decades at the Brisbane Broncos.
He will replace Nathan Brown, who could still be retained at the club in some capacity on the coaching staff.
The Bennett deal was exclusively revealed in The Daily Telegraph a week ago but was only sealed yesterday when he travelled to Sydney to finalise negotiations with CEO Peter Doust.
