T*ts.
You know what else I love?
That it was completely find when Bird was going to end up at Wigan or Bradford or Warrington or Hull......but as soon as that was not allowed to take place and he signed with Catalans....well THEN it become a disgrace!  |

As the sadly very, shall we say, premature ending of your brief encounter with my friend proved only too well.

So when is his trial anyway? Will he not have to go back to Australia for that?

| What amuses me about this whole situation is the whinging of other SL coaches.
"It's unfair", "its bending the rules"
As if they are whiter than white and butter wouldn't melt on their mouths.
I mean this is the same crew who justify signings by grandparents and whatever to bend the rules but when someone else does something that is different.
But this is RL and logic, common sense and fair play are usually not part of the agenda are they. |

I think Stevos thoughts on Boots and All last night were the most amusing aspect of this story, If he is denied access to the UK, stevo suggests we "check the eurostar".
Cheered me up after a e day at work anyway.

| Shouldn't have been allowed to sign for them IMO - more bias towards the expansion clubs from the RFL.  |

And which rule would you have used to stop it, exactly?
I'm not saying it shouldn't be addressed, mind, but as far as I can tell it breaks no current RFL ruling. |

The RFL accepted his Bradford registration. I seem to remember Gary Hetherington saying something about the RFL bringing the game into disrepute or similar. |

No but shouldn't the RFL stepped in and not allowed the Cats move? Just saying should be one rule for all clubs, regardless of the laws of each country. |

There is one rule for all clubs...
It wasn't the RFL that stopped him playing for Bradford.

If he can't play for Bradford, he shouldn't play for Cats.   |

It's not the RFL who is deciding who he can or can't play for. |

Quote ="Perfect Pimbletts Pies"So when is his trial anyway? Will he not have to go back to Australia for that?'" www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/s ... 66,00.html FORMER Cronulla five-eighth Greg Bird is expected to miss Catalans Dragons' Super League clash with English side Wakefield on Sunday after returning to Australia to prepare for his court appearance next month.
The match was seen as a potential test of whether the French club's star signing would be allowed to play games in Britain, where he was denied a work visa to join Bradford. Bird opted not to challenge the UK government's visa decision until after his court case, starting on April 27, is resolved.
We had hoped to fly him back in time for Sunday's game but it has not been possible.''
Bird is also due to return to Sydney for the court case, but Catalans expect him back from a pre-trial meeting and to be available when they host Bradford on March 21, Sky reported. They also planned to take him to Leeds six days later.
Bird made his debut for the Dragons as a 23rd-minute substitute in Saturday's 24-22 home loss to Castleford. The 25-year-old former Test representative drew praise for his performance from Catalans' Australian coach Kevin Walters after setting up a try in his first match for more than six months.

How many overseas players are allowed at each club this year? I'd be suprised if Quins RL still receive dispensation, but I am not sure about Catalan, Celtic and HKR  |
