Orford confirms Super League switch

Manly the musical has been done, even got made into a movie, but because noone outside Australia would understand they renamed it "Mama Mia"
 
The DVD release contains 6 hours of deleted scences where Toovey is whinging to the ref.

Also coming soon: Manly on Ice!
 
you mean the "Disney Princess On Ice" dont you?
 
Nah it's more like "Muppets on ice" really :P
 
yeah but Kermits going to england now
 
Hodkinson should get the gig for sure. He is such a tallent. Although having a halves combo of Foran and Hodkinson could be a liability in big pressure games.
 
LOL

Walker to block Orford's Bradford move
19:28 AEST Wed Nov 18 2009


Matt Orford's move from Manly to Bradford could be in doubt, as the English club faces legal action.

Matt Orford's move to Bradford could be in doubt after former Gold Coast winger Chris Walker revealed he is taking action against the English Super League club signing the Manly captain.

Orford, who announced last week he is leaving Manly to take up a lucrative contract in the UK, could be forced to stay in Australia after it emerged Bradford decided against signing Walker so they could secure the services of the 2008 Dally M Medal winner.

Prior to Orford becoming available, Bradford had already filled their quota of five overseas players and Walker could be left in limbo after rejecting a new contract from the Titans to sign with Bradford in August.

The former Sydney Roosters and Queensland star's manager Chris Orr said he will be asking lawyers to lobby the English Rugby League to block Orford's move.

"We will be looking at all options and the players association will be looking at all options and until Chris Walker's situation is resolved I can't see how they can sign Matt Orford," Orr told the Ten Network.

"It sets a terrible precedence if clubs can stockpile contracts sat on their desk and pick and choose who they want to activate.

"There has got to be a duty of care."
 
I doubt his move will be blocked.
 
They'll just pay out his contract and Walker will be sitting pretty on a fat pile of cash for nothing. He can play for match payments.
