Drew Mitchell signs with the Waratahs in 2010

[mudskipper]

Nothing in any of the papers today about Mitchell or Valentine signing... East coast or West coast... There is a story on Waugh re-signing with the Tahs for 2 years...

awaiting the all clear siren.

You learn it all here..

Valo and JOC for the

Now you need Tim Fairbother sign and it will be a great week for the Force...

Robyn....I told you this would be the case, why it took 7 weeks to announce is beyond me.

Muddy are you saying it has to be in the paper to be true? Remember a paper is now just recycled internet news 24 hours delayed.

That's probably why it's not in the paper, because it is actually true.

- he gets the chance to play full back at the waratahs (apparently he's still oblivious that he sucks at it)

Indeed. I suspect he thinks Shepherd will likely move to fullback once his foot is fully mended and wanted to maintain his visibility to compete for the relatively vacant Wallabies spot. I'm a bit surprised he wanted to take it on at the 'Tahs though, as it is not a position with a happy recent history there. If Gerrard is leaving I would have thought the Brumbies would have been a better choice but I'll bet that is where the money came into consideration. Still I can't help thinking he may have just signed himself out of a Wallabies spot, especially if Deans sees him as a winger.

No... just looking for some formal conformation or statement... perhaps tomorrow... next to ex-CEO Greg Harris's story...

"The Western Force has rejected reports that full-back Drew Mitchell has agreed to join the New South Wales Waratahs next season."

[TOCC]

wow, muddy was on the pulse this time round

[Garfiep]

Would this be like rejecting that their were any issues with quokkas, binge drinking, Firepower blah blah blah – Please Drew just go tell your boss that you don’t love us anymore and you no longer want to be a Wallaby so your going to drop your ball, miss your tackle and move to Sydney

what on earth is going on....?

what on earth is going on....?

I was suprised when this thread popped up. All I heard on Ch7 last night was "Channel 7 is led to believe that Drew Mitchell will sign with NSW". Nothing has hit the papers or the net about anything official. Whilst I don't actually doubt its going to happen, I don't think its really happened yet. As such RWA are possibly clinging to hope.
