Haven't seen this guy play but he has big wraps on him. Great job, Sharks!!!

Hopefully super coach doesnt make a bird of this signing

So we did get him after all that. Excellent.

Now the question is... where does he play.

Centres

Great to see the club actively pursuing youth. Seems like a departure away from the previous model of recruitment. That's Nu, Holmes, Gagan, and Bird the club has signed this year.

Hopefully the young bloke can impress early.

Read the article. They must have him down for a centre spot.

Trust the Sharks to sign a backrower to play in the backs. But a really exciting talent so well done Mooney et al.

Also been making more signings in NYC than previously - guys like Siolo, Isaako, Deitz, Addo-Carr, Simona are all from out of the area. Maybe just because this year was a weak age group though.

Plus five of this years Aus Schoolboys bodes well for regeneration over the next few years.

Anything is an improvement over Ayshford. It's a cancer-riddled world when you miss the Pom.

Not the fastest but bowls good line and length... I'll get my coat

I honestly though we signed Greg Bird reading the title.

Yes! Very excited about this signing. Watched him in the first week of Holden Cup finals. Played centre against Newcastle and scored 2 tries, runs hard, looks the goods.

Did a quick search on youtube for some footage but came up with the doughnut. If anyone can find some it would be greatly appreciated.

PS: A.Snowden....real footage :glasses-cool:
