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!
unless its an official afl product or unless its obtained in person by you, id be suspect... unfortunately its the society we live in but you gotta be careful not to be duped
