Not too many players that are any good not signed. Think it will be a Premier League side

Laura signed a late season injury replacement contract to finish off last season in Europe.

There has been no word of her signing a contract with that same team, or another European team for next season.

Sorry but you are wrong.

She resigned for the entire next season after not receiving info from lightning about upcoming season.

She is listed on the ex players list along with Tolo who has moved on from Bourges.

If its a done deal that she is playing there next season, I haven't seen it announced anywhere else other then through Boti.

If that is the case, I'd prefer to say its unconfirmed.

would be great if lightning could run langford / scheer as the 2 number 4s - I like that combo

Boti's blog includes a quote from Laura, as does this article.

How much more proof is needed?

The club suffered a further blow this week with news current captain and Australian Opals vice-captain Laura Hodges has signed to play with Bourges, in France, next season

"My heart is with Adelaide and I didn't want to leave."
"I really struggled with the whole situation and held off as long as I could."
