He signs it "Buddy" now?
What a ****ior.
Was bound to happen sooner or later,
if you have his old sig hold onto it, as in future years it will only be obtained through official signing sessions/afl memorabillia.
Just look at players such as:
Judd - uses Cjudd instead of the full sig (like on captains)
Early days he signed his nice full sig
Cousins - shortened to BCuz
-occured in his last season really, otherwise was always giving a full sig.
Even Kerr - Uses a D with a swirl (still gave me his full though on my player issue)
This started around the end of last yr, start of this yr.
Just a few examples of players i have obtained/watched over the years, sure their would be more. Players like Crawford and Rob Harvey were very consistent over the years though! I really respect the players who stick with the one full sig!
