st pats or miners?

Don't get too excited, I know for a fact he has family in Wigan, more likely related to that. He's about to turn 32 and has been playing in the Championship for the last four seasons, seriously doubt he would start at Wigan ahead of Leuluai or Powell

Aye, probably off back to Oz...

Sammut must have the worlds best agent if he ends up at Wigan.

It has been made clear that Jarrod Sammut has personal problems which are causing him to reject London's offer and to return to Australia.

Where did it say that Jean, I must have missed it?

I think that's more of a presumption, it does state he has left due to personal reasons however it says nothing about going to Australia.

bear in mind, the last person london 'released' due to personal problems (wanted to be nearer his family in the north) was andy ackers, who then miraculously signed for toron'o

The difference here is that Sammut is not contracted, he's a free agent so he wasn't 'released'. Ackers was contracted and was 'released'. He can cite whatever reason he wants to leave London..

Tweeted on the 18th saying -

"I tell ya Summ'ut, it all starts with Bullief. #SelfBullief"

Bradford bound?

Im hearing that.

Surely not. I know we aren't world beaters but we've got quality in all the positions he plays. I'd taken the Wigan comment to be about signing for Leigh but he loves his cryptic comments.

I think Jarrods just winding everybody up with the "bulleif" and "wigan dictionary tweets"


As pumpety says, we're strong in those positions. I'd be surprised if Leigh and Widnes aren't trying to sign him.

I agree, he’s Widnes or Leigh bound I reckon.

Someone at the club told me he has signed for the Bulls.

Widnes need some quality to come straight back up, otherwise Gelling and Inu will be looking for a way out?

I thought they had given up on that ambition by appointing Keiron Purtill.

Yes he was, he signed a contract hours before asking to leave. Thankfully for him the club were kind enough to accept his reasons.

He was making those tweets having a bit of fun hours before Broncos had tweeted to say they were making an announcement at 12pm last Monday. Unfortunately for Jarrod and his family circumstances changed dramatically that morning forcing him to ask Broncos to release him again and make his tweets look rather silly. He was just having a bit of fun with fans whilst thinking in a few hours he would actually be officially a Broncos player again.

I think Gelling has already moved on. Think he's Catalan bound. Can't see Inu sticking around to play champ rugby either.

Could be wrong but didn't I read on the London forum that his kid has started school in Yorkshire somewhere and he's got a house up here as well.

Tha bloody whet?!?

TheDreadnought knows.

Just shows what SL has become when the champions are signing Jarrod Sammut, christ.

Wigan board in ' meltdown ' , funny as

Maybe it just shows where Wigan are at financially. Mentioned before on the most astute owner thread that Wigan as a club make substantial losses year on year whilst others are making profits. Rivals are making marquee signings this off season and they’re signing Sammut.
