First bit of steelwork in the next two weeks? Please place your bets :smt003
The steelwork has been ordered and paid for but it had already been hired for another application and will not be released until October. Tigers are looking into paying an early release fee. :smt003

But will steel get damaged before it arrives??

I understand that should any of the steel be damaged their is a contingency plan to deploy the undamaged elements out of position!

I understand they are desperately looking to source more locally produced steel as there is a limit on the amount of overseas steel that can be used....... :smt003

I feel it is a sign of how far this club has slipped that, even with the allowance to spend beig on Marquee materials such as Titanium or Carbon nano-tubing. we can only attract the attention of steel makers...
Never mind the ball, get on with the game!!

We're sticking with steel in order to maximise Young's modulus... :smt003
