JYE Etheridge (pictured) has become Berwick's fourth signing of the winter.
The Australian, who was named Bandits' Rider of the Year last season, returns to Shielfield Park on a full transfer from Edinburgh and joins Aaron Summers, David Howe and Kevin Doolan on the team sheet. Co-promoter Scott Courtney said: "Jye impressed me with his performance in the 2016 Stars of Tomorrow meeting at Berwick, and I vividly remember thinking that anyone who gets up off the deck that many times and still gives it 100 per cent is made of tough stuff."¨ "Put that together with his talent, discipline and the correct environment, the results should come, and they certainly did come for Jye."¨ "Myself and my brother Jamie felt that we had to make the move to purchase him from the Monarchs and make him a fully-fledged asset, and we did so as soon as we committed to giving him his opportunity. "¨ "I'm sure Jye has progression in mind for 2018 and we are excited to see him line up once again for the Bandits."
