Yeah, another sop to divert attention from the lack lustre displays on the field.

Goebbels would be proud

I hope that we have signed orford for next year but i would think what has actually happened is that we have made orford an offer for next year along with some other clubs and he will be weighing up his options and waiting for a bidding war - Hope this is not true as I am not sure we would win one - would love to see him here

That is exactly what has happened. We have put our bid on the table just like many more will. It just so happens we have been one of the first SL clubs to approach him!

Spot on. Won't happen in a million years, but an easy way to compound our reputation for missing out on top players by making up that we've got Orford and when we haven't.

Who else wanted to sign fitzgibbon? Every club in SL would sign orford if they could (except the dobbins of course, who's canberra reserve grader is obviously better)
