Very nice pick-up for Clan.

Wouldn’t have minded seeing him join us.

That’s gonna cause a ‘Rumble in the Jungle!’

That’s gonna cause a ‘Rumble in the Jungle!’

Confused, why a rumble in the jungle..?

 

[Devils86]

Confused, why a rumble in the jungle..?

Probably my auto-correct typo. Zaire came out when it should have been Zaine

 

[kingmo19.1]

Confused, why a rumble in the jungle..?

Presume he's alluding to the fact they've allowed Hopkins to go to Blaze and brought McKenzie in, who statistically isn't really in the same league.

 

[tim78]

I took it as
rumble - thunder - lightening
Jungle - king the jungle - lion - panthers

I'm sure there's a Radio 1 lucid connections game there.

This might be a tangent but there are some players that fly so far under the radar that I couldn't tell you a single thing about them. Crocock must be pretty decent to last to year three but not only could I not pick him out of a line-up but I wouldn't have been able to tell you which team he played for without 86's post..... I am sure there are other players like that but this re-signing stood out as a 'who?' moment....

PANTHERS | Fun-time Friday serves up the 6th signing announcement of the day, and the 2nd for the Panthers. D-man Carl Neill signs on from the DEL

At his testimonial he said he will never ice at IAW or for devils again, think he feels he was let down by not being asked to come back..at his age now Swindon would probably be his best option , or may choose to go into coaching.. ..guildford outside bet for me ..just saying

No player has a right to be asked back though, so I don't see how he feels let down by the Devil's if I'm honest. I know one year he was asked back but choose to go back to the panthers so can't have it both ways!!

CLAN | Super 7! Glasgow welcome back EIHL journeyman Jordan Cownie

Pretty sure the season we signed Waller/Davies, which left no room for him, he was without a club and asked the Devils if he could train with us to keep fit until he could find another club. Devils said no. Which maybe wasn't the nicest of moves.

About a week later he posted on social media that he was looking for a club and he got picked up by Panthers again.

Brython preece signed for bees. Another eihl Brit stepping down.

 

[terry hunt]

According to Elite Preece has gone to the Bees.I wondered if we might have picked him up as a backup.
