St George Illawarra's off-season recruitment has snared two more names, with experienced rake Heath L'Estrange and halfback Beau Henry joining the NRL club while backrower Bronson Harrison has been shown the door.

One day after announcing the signing of cult hero George Rose on a one-year deal, former Manly and Sydney Rooster L'Estrange and local junior Henry also arrive on contracts that tie them to the club until the end of 2015.

The 29-year-old Harrison, who spent nine seasons at Wests Tigers and Canberra before linking with the Dragons in 2013, was cut loose along with Josh Ailaomai, Willie Mataka and Shane Pumipi.

Henry played for the Dragons in the under-20s competition from 2008 to 2010, winning the player-of-the-year award in 2009, and has played 14 NRL games for Newcastle and Gold Coast in recent years.
