in fact if you count the 15th it's about 4,000...
And sainteronline if you believe that Nissan has signed because of the BC issue you must still believe in the tooth fairy ...
Deals like that are done over a decent period
Don't wait for the light at the end of the tunnel to appear, run down there and light the bloody thing yourself!
they still signed with bcSt Fidelius wrote:Just beat me to it brat...saintbrat wrote:as far as checking how many the saints have sold since Tuesday-sainteronline wrote: "The club has also had 2000 members sign up since drafting Cousins on Tuesday."

Tigers now have someone to follow who knows what he's doing too.
Which team benefits the most? I say the Tigers because the drop from Cousins to Richo/Brown/whoever is far greater than the drop down of Judd to Fev/Whitnall etc.
But if Cousins went to the Blues somehow - Judd would immediately be second in line (ON THE FIELD - where it counts)
![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)
This is getting to be funny...
First, the "youth policy" was a lie coz we we're gonna take Carrol... then when that lost traction... BC would help us take the next step... then it was members... now it's sponsorships.
All I can say is

The lid is off after Round 2! Enjoy the journey, coz you just don't know where we'll end up. Live for today and seize the moment.

LOL - nah was never a Tigers member. Gee if I was I would have ripped up my membership by now, dropped a load of s*** on the club's doorstep and spat at the coach...sainteronline wrote:niethr paymine yearlyIceman234 wrote:LOL

Was yours one of the Tigers memberships SOL?
no did you![]()
Or one of ours?
![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
I roll mine over anually, and I'm tipping the Tigers have a similar/same deal.
Again, are you basing any increase/decrease on the BC issue?

I just caught on the news that the recession will hit harder than first expected... now that Cousins has signed with Richmond...
President Obama has called Wallace and requested to be #1 ticket holder...
And the global warming is now the biggest threat to Cousins career... something to do with the polar caps, and less ice.![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)

sainteronline- the way your defending their possible increase it's almost as if you hope they do get more than us?
which is what I find so odd about this whole BC debate- he is ONE 30 yr old player? and as many have said for years- it takes MORE than one player to make a team. and to get a win or two,

But the Saints and 15 other clubs thought he wasn't a viable option because of "reasons", until the board at Richmond reneged and took him with the last possible pick.sainteronline wrote:no that one player can make a lot of differencesaintbrat wrote:sainteronline- the way your defending their possible increase it's almost as if you hope they do get more than us?![]()

The masters of deceit those tricky Tigers.
probably didn't even make an "informed decision"
or were blinded by "confidential information"
but it seems they did know a good opportunity when confronted with it
