I've delved onto the Cronulla Forum again and picked out some quotes from their fans - general consensus is that he wasn't really getting game time and they are split on whether or not he should have been playing.....

"He's a good player with a good workrate and has a fast play-the-ball. There was no reason not to play him, a fit Arona is obviously better than a gassed Gallen."

"Aronas mobility and size would have been so ****ing handy.

Yet he sits there for 80 minutes watching his team mates ****ing rooted"


"I always liked arona, handy squad filler but was always a frindge player. Best of luck to him and hopefully we can fill his spot with someone more likely to bust into firsts."

"Yeah i had a soft spot for him. Always gave his all and gave a **** about the team and the performances.

Handy without being amazing."


"No loss. Was average at best."

"He's a good player, was just about our best the first half of 2014 season so good luck to him over there. Not the sort of player that's useful getting 10 minute stints (or 0 minutes) from the bench anyways."

"Wish all the best to Arona. He seemed like a real class act to me... Probably for the best that he went overseas and grab some decent coin while he has the chance."

Overall pretty positive!

I like the look of the depth

Another good signing from our feeder club Cronulla.

Didn't see this one coming, not read anything at all with any rumours on this signing.

Next signing needs to be announced when he runs out on to the pitch to play, like the good old days :)

Indeed.

Depth is looking pretty good.
