We've had many goats on our books, over the years.
The "Scape" variety

They do if you're the type who likes to buy a shirt with their favourite player's name and number on. Although really they should update the squad numbers with the release of the new shirt, for this purpose.
Personally, I buy a shirt about one in every three years but never get a name and number on the back. Once you're older than your favourite player, it's time to stop  |

That particular ball ended up in touch around the time of summer rugby in my case.

It’s probably more important for players really ie pecking order etc.I do look forward to them coming out aswell though just to see who moved up or down or not got one altogether |

Any idea whether our overseas players are back in the country yet?
I saw in the Guardian that Austin was back (pictured with his guitar in what looked like Grappenhall) and they said previously that they believed Widdop was back but GI was 'expected' to be here in time to link up on Monday (11th Jan). Anybody know anything more?
Are the club even going to bother paying Latu's air fare to come back?

I’ve always been against squad numbers. They promote a sense of security amongst some.
I’d prefer to revert back to team numbers. You play well, you earn the number, continue and you keep it.

If it’s in Latu’s contract, then they have an obligation to pay for it. |

I'd suggest that the price of his ticket is the least of our concern regarding the cost of Latu's contract on the basis that he'll be fed and watered |

Greg Inglis arrived at Manc Airport today. Was on the Wire Twitter, with pics. |

I also prefer traditional numbers, so you know who's supposed to be in each position.
I know it was sometimes messed up because some clubs had (for example) 8 as the blind-side prop and 10 as the open-side, and others had 8 as right and 10 as left, or players swapped positions mid-game, but at least you had a sense of who was supposed to be where. |

Genuine question, can you not tell that just by peoples positioning, and play? |
