When Brown is asked directly he throws up red herrings about him having to be released etc, but that would be because it isn't his place to announce signings in the middle of press conferences about games.
I think it's now one of those "worst kept secret" things.
Yeah to me it sounded like that too. That said, it felt like the Tigers were in the box seat to get him and other people I knew were talking about him in the Tigers lineup as if he was there.
So based off what's happened I imagine we upped our offer a bit and he was happy to take a bit less?
