2013 Official Thread + Signing news

[nacho]

Its very reassuring to see fellow supporters share the same view about the future crop of players representing our city and us as fans.

If we keep voicing concerns over issues like this then we will be in good hands!

Can anyone tell me what is that extended thumb and little finger crap all about.

I have seen pictures of Ferguson doing it...Lodge doing it....other Gen Y's doing it...

are they meant to be gangsters or something ??

Please don't me that is it...or I will piss myself laughing

people of low socio-economic backgrounds have adopted this hand signal as their greeting to one another when they meet amongst individuals of average or higher intellegence. They also use it as a beacon of sorts, traditionally the first person to use the signal buys the beers.

O Dear !

This 'old bloke' thinks you are referring to a 'surfers hand sign' ? that goes back a long time

Thought I'd best check,(since my grey sponge holds a bit these days), & found this Shaka sign
hope the info helps

Thanks BR.....the link was useful !

Not sure what the relevance or significance is to the non surfing Gen Y's though.

The older I get...the less I seem to understand...

Good news...let's all hope that the re-education and re-wiring process for Matthew Lodge has begun.

[sallymay]

So according to frank ponessi we have picked up 4 players for next year Lodge Hunt Robinson and Kafusi

And lost Ryles Sau widdop Blair Setu and Mcghann

Matt mcghan is apparently going back to union

Vave and Kirisome Avvaa are both in talks now Vave is 90% to stay Somi is 50/50

[blazza18]

So not much recruiting really. Like we're going younger though. Tbh losing young players is never good but I wasn't really impressed with McGahan that much.

Hopefully Vave stays and I'd like to see Avvaa too, he's been impressive in the Q cup IMO.

[sallymay]

Apparently have spots for three more two Ryles like players and a backup 5/8 but have found anyone yet

McGahan was great up until he broke his leg early in 2012. Came back this year into a team without a help at 1, 7 and 9 and had to play out of position.

Would have been a better 6 then Hampton IMO.

EXCLUSIVE in the Mole in @LeagueWeek today: @MelbourneStorm show interest in the great @gorgeousgrose AKA George Rose!

[glennb]

I did hear the George Rose story about two months ago and posted here. I think the Mole is behind the times or he has been reading this site and getting his information!!!
