Quote: Alffi_7 "There will also be a case of managing the flow of information to the media I expect, Guardian will be full of news and interviews from the Grand Final this week, no point announcing a signing to go along side it. Send it out in a quieter news week and maximise PR exposure and references in local and whatever limited national press the spot gets these days.
Or like you say, he could just not have signed officially on the dotted yet.'"
Well the other thing is its not a straight forward situation. Widnes have their players the month to consider re-signing, so that process is going on. It could also be hes waiting for his contract to officially end at the 1st November if hes switching agents, paul wood did that with us a few years ago.
