Nigel Vagana signs for souths

[fulltime]

announced on 9 news just now.

 

[LESStar58]

Guess it's a start. They just need a half decent halves pairing now.....

 

[Master Vippo]

Thats interesting. They really need some profile players to bring in other high profile players..

Did they say how much?

 

[yobbo84]

It was Danny Weidler. Don't believe it until you see it on the Official website. Remember last year when Magoo on 2Gb announced we'd signed Steve Bell?

 

[Big Mick]

They don't need new halves....they just need someone to take pressure off them so they don't get bombarded every set of 6.

Peachey/Champion is a start.

They need a ballplaying lock. Ben Rogers was meant to be their answer...they should move Sutton there.

1. Peachey
6. Champion
7. Williams
13. Sutton

 

[***MH***]

awesome signing for souths.... having peachey and nigel in one backline will help entice other top signings for sure.

 

[boonboon]

Not a bad backline really

Peachey
Hegarty
Vagana
Gordon
Merritt
Sutton
Walker

but without the McDougalls they need more signings, a halfback, plus some forwards

 

[Johns Magic]

Decent signing, but it doesn't nearly make up for the loss of the MacDougalls.

I'd say Adam MacDougall was the perfect centre for Souths, because alot of his brilliance comes from brute strength. I fear that Vagana might struggle without good playmakers inside him.

 

[Penance]

Yeh but maddog was a liability in the sense of injuries to be honest. I will miss him

 

[Pigskin]

Nigel is 32 years old isn't he ?

1 million for 3 years :crazy:

Oink !

 

[Hurriflatch]

Peachey
Mad Dog
Vagana
Cusack

What's Souths plan an entire team of over 30's

Russell Crowe would be close to the youngest person at the club

 

[Mr. Snrub]

Vagana's been to afew clubs now.

 

[sharkadelic]

Adds to the Cronulla flavour with Peach, Vags, Merritt and Mellor. And werent they chasing Thompson?

No chance of winning a premiership now....

 

[Sharkie™]

3 not including the move to the rabbits-
NZ
Dogs
Sharks

money talks

 

[kia ora storm]

Good signing...where will Sutton play ??. Or will they play Vagana in the centres ??.

 

[canberra_raiders2k2]

great move by Souths, hopefully Vagana can play like he did at the dogs and not come to the rabbitohs and free load aka chris walker.

 

[Bobby DIGital]

Vagana always puts in, he's a professional. Very good signing for Souths.

 

[wittyfan]

Souths need much, much more than a fading Vagana.

 

[Bazal]

When will Souths learn they need to build a quality junior base? Seriously Vagana is a good signing but it's part of a quick fix solution-attract big name players to win now, but what happens when those players go? Look at Newcastle/Bulldogs/Roosters last year, that's what happens...Sutton is the ONLY decent junior they have produced in a looong time.

 

[macavity]

poor vags

i bet they put him at 6 and sutton to lock

makes sense if they dont get anyone else decent
