Polo's new 2 year deal
« on: August 06, 2006, 09:12:05 PM »
Reported in HS today that Dean signed a 2 year deal with us yesterday. Good result for us and the kid. Will be a very nice player down the track. Only Raines to go from what I understand.

Article says Deledio, Meyer, Pattison & Tambling are signed until the end of 2007. Now Polo to 2008. :thumbsup
Deledio is actually signed until the end of 2009.  ;)

I think Patto is signed to 2008 - he signed for another 2 years.

Tambling original deal was for 3 years so he told me in Perth in June

Meyer was the only one to sign a 1 year extension.

very interesting re: Meyer. Have noticed how well Miller is staggering his contracts. Basic common knowledge i know but very sensible stuff nonetheless.

More importantly why havent we signed up Raines yet ???? I thought he was close to signing a month ago ? WTF is going on at Richmond?

The RS Award might have something to do with holding up Rainsey's deal. If he won it then that would equal more $$$. I'm pretty sure he won't be going anywhere so Sheeds can go fly a kite as far as pinching one of our youngsters  :thumbsup.   

Anyway fantastic news on Polo. Well done RFC  :clapping. Although the last of the "fantastic 5" picked up and to debut he's arguably doing the best to date.

Do you think Geoff Raines would really want his son at Essendon?

Didn't he say going to Essendon was a big mistake?
