Of course Joey has re-signed, never in doubt too good to retire, and would never think of going anywhere else. Sir Martin bleeds red and every Devils fan will sleep well now tonight.

No suprise this is an early announcement...#88 is known for liking to get things organised and done early. The announcement of the Team's Captain returning for another season is always a huge boost for the Club and fans...especially when it's the GOAT. :cool:

Also sends a message out to any import coming to these shores how the hell has an import played so many yrs for 1 club , we all know why ,apart from the goat being a gem, the club management look after the incoming players and families .
