http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/101646/default.aspxDEFENDERS Nathan Bock and Nathan Krakouer have been confirmed as new club Gold Coast's first signings.
There has been speculation all season that several players had already agreed to join the Suns during a brief window of opportunity at the end of the 2009 season, but League rules had prevented the club from revealing their identities.
Bock had already announced his intentions to pursue a deal with Gold Coast and was stood down from playing with Adelaide after round 20.
Krakouer declared he wanted to leave Port Adelaide and seek a deal with one of the WA clubs or Gold Coast.
As part of its start-up concessions, Gold Coast is permitted to sign up to 16 uncontracted players - one from each existing AFL club.
