Quinn has retired, McLean is signed for next year, Moylan is delisted, Blair has an option to stay which I believe he's taken, Berkrey, I've never heard of.

Finch was on Fox sports news today and said he was coming back to Melbourne as a untily and is in a queue behind Cooper and Gaz. He is just coming back on board for one year but hoping to stay longer to get involved in coaching because footy is all he has even done.

I'm sure Finch will spend more time in 2013 in a coaching/mentoring role than actually playing.

There are whispers going around that Anthony Quinn is on the verge of signing with Newcastle.

He certainly didn't seem happy in the end. Wonder if it was because he was dropped ?

There is a rumour on the league unlimited forum that the Storm are going to sign Broncos' Under 20's goalkicking backrower Mitch Frei. Have seen him play a number of games for the Broncos Under 20s, he also played some games with Norths Devils and was in the Broncos' first grade squad this year. He wouldn't be a bad pickup but I wouldn't have thought we would have any room left in our first grade squad. If we don't maybe he might sign with Easts Tigers.

Frei's dad Harry played 6 games with Footscray in the VFL in the 1970s and was a medium fast bowler for Queensland in the 1980s.

Where is the Mitch Frei rumours coming from ? More young forwards would be lovely.
