Beat me to it obviously the chances are it's nothing to do with Sam but stranger things have happened and no smoke without fire and all that but I personally think it's Burns for 2015 but it's a slight coincidence.

Soup !

This.

Lol @ the blow-up on twitter about signings.

Yep. Looks obvious after that second tweet.

Big one 5 at 5am??!! No chance.

What?

Andrew Voss tweeted not long ago...

"@AndrewVoss9: Mail @RaidersCanberra looking to offload Terry Campese . @WiganWarriorsRL set to make big signing tonight. @NZWarriors Leuluai also linked."

They've just been tweeting pics of Joe Burgess with a Big One 5 scarf. As far as announcements go, this one's a wee bit underwhelming.

Whist thus us what I expected I don't think it will be well received, and expect a bit of a backlash.

Do the club not understand the market and their fans? You make an announcement like last nights and you really should have some significant news to excite the fans.

As much as player signings excite the fans we don't really need anyone if we can retain Taylor (the announcement I'd have liked) so it's not really a surprise that the Big One five is the announcement.

I've been a bit disappointed with out marketing efforts this year and thought events like this were on the wane so I'm actually pretty happy.

I mentioned a few weeks ago that our big game marketing has been non-existent over the last couple of seasons. I hope they really step it up once the new structure kicks in, because there definitely is a sense of apathy amongst the fans and crowds at the DW have been dwindling.

This announcement is disappointing because hundreds of fans read a tweet and put 2 and 2 together and got 5. It was silly to hype it up so much but it doesn't deserve the backlash some are suggesting.
