| Absolute joke, when you think of all the eastern europeans that come in thanks to our links to brilliant EU, that offer nothing to the country, compared to what Greg Bird would offer

Until after the court case? Or at all?

Article doesn't say, just says he's confirmed he won't appeal it.

| We will probably never know the exact details in his agreement with Cronulla or the exact details of his working Visa rejection. But I do find it troubling that a man who has only been accused of a crime and not found guilty of anything now finds himself unable to work in his preferred field presumably due to an accusation of a crime.

| Quote “Greg Bird will have to wait until his day in court to prove his innocence and get back his life,” said his agent Chris Orr, in a statement this morning.
“Today he has had to endure more heartache as his application to secure a visa to take up his contract with the Bradford Bulls was denied due to facing a police charge.
“Rather than fight this decision through the appeals process, Greg has decided to have his day in court and prove his innocence before reapplying.
“The Bradford Bulls will support Greg throughout this period with a view of him joining them as soon as he has cleared his name.
“Neither Greg nor the Bradford Bulls will be making any further comment until after the court case on April 27.” '"

With the court case hanging over him it was never going to be easy for him to get a visa unfortunately.

Never mind all those plumbers and other skilled workers, it's foreign RL players with court cases hanging over them that we want in the UK eh?
If I would you I'd write to Richard Littlejohn and complain.

Hardly a big deal, we have plenty of people who are locked up in prison who haven't been convicted of anything, it's called remand.
Can't say i'm surprised tbh, and I would hope our 'support' is limited to empathy and the odd phone call, rather than involving any financial commitment. If he wins his court case and is still keen to come then all well and good.

Plumbers? Dregs of the building trade. Only turn up if you're having a new central heating system installed and charge a fortune.
Put them on the list with extremist clerics, dutch nazis and short tempered but otherwise innocent until proven Aussie RL players

| Given how drawn out the visa process has become, and how drawn out a court case in the public eye might be, is there a strong likelihood that he'll never actually get here even if he isn't convicted? If cleared he's free to plaay in the NRL in 2010 after all.

possibly but he'll want to play some sort of rugby so why not come over to Bradford? He'll get some coin and get to play with Beaver. Sounds like a winning combination.
