Nope, I mean from our end. He's leaving the NRL as far as I'm told. Also helps that Dave is telling anyone who asks him that Andrew is on his way, I think even for Dave if that were a joke it would be wearing thin by now.
I'll be blunt, from what I'm told the contract has been signed and it's from a reliable source or as reliable as they ever get.
I didn't get this from my new chum and best mate MC by the way, who frankly never gives anything away and whom I wouldn't play poker against.
I can't honestly think of anything that can scupper it now but frankly at the moment I honestly believe that if there is a misfortune to be had it will find it's way to us.
I was told that a deal had been agreed although not yet signed but was expected to be finished this week hence clearing the quota spot so he could be registered for visa purposes. (This btw also comes from a pretty good mole.) Then the change of coach happened and with 14 sharks players off contract at the end of the season Fitzgibbon wants to review the roster before signing off on anything. Still seems quite optimistic it will happen but they’ll be a delay, but with him picking up a 3 week ban and then the challenge cup weekend following the rush isn’t as intense as it was. The deal was only for the rest of this season though.
That said i much prefer your version so i hope that’s right.
