Ubaka and Dorsey sign with Melbourne

I think its purely a money thing. Fearne's proven himself as a decent coach but prob lacks a bit of charisma - similar to Wayne Bennet but we all know how good he is. Dorsey, Ubaka & Dillon would have been saying 'show me the money' - & Cairns cant. It's a shame but money is money. Clever of Gleeson to swoop - Tigers looking ok!

why would Melb not want to keep one of the most athletic young players around in Walker Anon?

So last year, the Tiges were collecting centres, this year it appears they're building a SF collection?

Massive signings for Melbourne and a big blow for Cairns. The Tigers definitely need another big, because Burston ALWAYS has injury troubles, but on paper they have a very nice starting lineup with some good players off the bench too.

Haven't counted myself but if Big Sexy is right and they only have 10 points remaining before adding Rush, there aren't many points left for a backup centre. Will probably have to be a pretty average journeyman at best with 3-4 points available.

Sour grapes I know - but have these guys thought about the way they were treated like rock stars in Cairns and from one of the best supporter groups in the league, then going to Melbourne Tigers and become unknowns (who cares)in that big city and not such a good supporter group? I have lived in Melbourne for many years, where no one cares about anyone else.
