I've heard whispers that he's been bought by us? Can you confirm anything Girvie?

Would be a great buy and would develop nicely in RIP before coming down to most likely play off the bench for us.:)

You'd be spot on their rb.Good little player. I saw him in a schoolboy final playing in the halves with Junior Junior Pearce. Totally outplayed him.His brother is a handy little 2nd rower as well.

Yeah Liam Foran has signed with Melbourne for 2 years.

He is a good young halfback.

I don't think he will be a bench player for you Philstorm.

Where else will he play Girvie? What's he like defensively? If he has a good tackling technique, I can see him being given the Nathan Friend role or possible even a chance at 5/8th next year.

He would probably only play halfback.

In defence he has been put on the wing or centre. Away from the middle of the field. Defence is not his strong point.

Obviously we wouldn't sign him up as solely a half-back considering we have Cronk in the team?

I still stand by my thought that he'll become a 5/8th/Bench playmaker.

I've watched him play all season. He is a halfback. He doesn't have the build for 5/8th and i don't think he will used from the bench because Cronk doesn't need to be replaced.

He was signed as a back up to Cronk.

We don't sign back-up players.

We alter their style to suit our gameplan. I'm sure Bellamy will do a great job turning him into a 5/8th.
