If Jamie Lyon is a legend, then the word is used far to easily, and we may as well describe Rickey Bibey as a legend.

You really are Saints' Rouges Gallery, talking utter poop 99% of the time

Nah, I think Rouges Gallery suits you better. More Gallic, and ephasis on your feminine side.

we dont need anyone, the team we have is un beatable, we will need to sell our youth soon as we have no need for them either.

I thought he was supposed to be signing for us straight after the Leeds v Manly World Club Challenge game?

Why else is the number 4 shirt still not allocated for 2009?

Worst kept secret EVER!

I think too many people have put Lyon on a pedestal,yes he is a great player but not as great as some are making out.

Last time round he was playing with Vinnie Anderson as his inside 2nd row,he was often put into situations by Anderson that left him one on one with a defender.....any good centre should do well one on one.

Not knocking Lyon but the love affair the second time round isn't usually as good as the first.

Also,people are automatically assuming he will play at 3....what about Gidley? What about the fact since his return home he has played SO?

Variables people,variables

If he's only coming here in 2010, I'd expect Gidley to be passing him as they fly between countries.

Isn't Gidley only on a one year contract? So, is likely to retire at the end of this season.

Lyon didn't play SO. They wanted him in the 'training squad', but in true Jamie Lyon fashion, he told them he'd rather stay at home with his wife and kids. The Aussie press didn't really get that one as far as i remember.
