IF he can find another Union club and IF the WRU say he is in with a chance of making the Wales squad then I think he will stay in RU.
However if not... he might give league a go.

| Yawnion get one of arguably our best prospects in Eastmond.
We are looking at the possibilities of signing a ageing player with disiplinary problems.
I dont like it, but its a fact.

All players are ageing, that is definitely a fact. I would prefer to bring a 19 year old full international, but at 29 is he really too old how to learn how be a prop forward in the quicker game.
Eastmond left to have his ego stroked in a code that has an international game with a wider appeal, and more money for an easier run. We can certainly aim to sort out two of those problems for our game, and Andy Powell may be seen as a lesser footballer going the other way to Eastmond, but I certainly wouldn't mind having a wrecking ball of a forward on the books at the Twickenham Stoop and Iestyn Harris wouldn't mind having a Welsh born player to help build a competitive team for the Four Nations, even if he might not want him in Wrexham right now.

Given the picture shows him getting smashed over the head with a chair you feel he could have put up a better fight?
How about you trying it?
Form an orderly queue for a chair people

Well under-14s to Super League is a fairly big stepping stone in my book.

It’s an interesting description on the Sun website quoted earlier www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/ne ... brawl.html
This bit stood out... “The witness added: "Powell was down all the time we were finishing our drinks, about ten to 15 minutes.
"He was definitely unconscious. It didn't look like he was moving."
Nice friendly pub!

I think thats just for the Barbarians game. Things could change for him before the world cup.
Doesn't look hopeful for him though.

The pub, if I'm very much mistaken, was a local haunt of a certain Barry McKenzie (Phipps in his current guise) when he was doing the dishes at that particular Walkabout.
One of the people who attacked Powell for allegedly singing Cardiff City songs was a right roid head and larger than Powell. Not to mention the others that helped whilst hitting him with chairs etc.
I've been in that particular Walkabout when watching Cardiff City play at QPR and funnily enough you don't see the same people that are so intent on wrapping a chair around somebody or putting a boot in when the club is full and the odds could even up a little.
Back on subject if Powell wants to come then give him a go but certainly don't be held to ransom and if the wages border on that of a top quality prop already in league then get the experienced prop on board.

Funnily enough, I am just about to move to Shepherds Bush, but of course I will continue to follow one my life rules... never go to a Walkabout... so I should be OK

He should have just been in a mood for 3 years and not try when he decided to play again.
Mr. Powell is welcome to come try our sport again, I'm sure his mate Gareth Thomas will be able to sell it to him.

Sure, but when will he be fired for misconduct?
While speculating about Welshmen, what about Gavin dropped-by-toulon-and-no-one-will-touch-him-with-a-bargepole Henson.
