According to a quote by Agar in the YEP we just missed out on signing this guy from St George Illawarra as he wanted to stay in Aus.

It's a shame really as he had a back foot cut to die for

So RA is looking at another prop.
Nick Scruton anyone?

Have you just seen that on Tw@tter?

Yeah

How old is that article? Gower last played for the Drag Queens in 2011... He was at Manly last season and signed for Parramatta for 2014 a few months ago.

What's been said on Twitter?

Aye but on the negative side, was very airey fairy outside the off stump and regularly got caught behind or in the slips!! OWZAT?

Where on twitter is this??

Wildcats news on Twitter

Is that anything official? Or someone being a bit mischievous as the bulls are not in a good way?

Wildcats news is just some lame twitter feed with old news, not very reliable at all, the majority of there news is taken from here or from facebook

Whilst I support people trying to get a debate going, I dislike the fact this account pretends to be official, when it is far from it.

One post on there, in-corroborated, is all it takes. I don't think there's anything in this, but it would be good if there was!

Is his Mum still working in our club office?

Do we know how the visa/passport application for Siejka is going yet? When do we expect to find out?

On a side note I notice London have just announced the signing of a guy with no international or first grade experience in australia, which means the RFL must have supported his visa application to get it through. Something they refused to do for Siejka by all accounts for exactly the same reason. Double standards?

Hopefully it's not.


Maybe they thought it was David?

I was under the impression that Siejka had first grade experiance from his time at the Panthers ? Or do you have to have a certain number of first grade apperances ?

4 games in 2011 wasn't it but nothing since with the warriors and the Dragons? Thoughtyou have to have played in a percentage of games to be an automatic pick for a permit unless theres medical reason why you couldn't but if the governing body supported your application then you had a good chamce to get it through. I might be wrong but either way he was more qualified than the guy london have signed.

Seijka will be here in good time.

He will be better than anything we have let go / lost.

Are we keeping Goulding as well or is that dependant of Siejka signing or not?

Potentially maybe, in reality maybe not. I rated John but he never settled.

Sad to say his accent has probably got him an opportunity here.

Aussie accent or not i haven't seen anything outstanding from Goulding yet to warrant a place in front of Siejka if he signs. I'm all for home grown players in front of imports only if they are better players.

Gouldings kicking game at Headingley on boxing day was v.poor.

You've seen Siejka play?

Pretty mixed reaction on Aussie forums about seijak, some at Penrith rate him better than Walsh who's off to saints and having seen Walsh on TV I rate,then some say he's not as good as godinet, and his tackling leaves a lot to be desired,looks like one of them youl have to wait and make your own decision but I wouldn't think its a dead cert he's better than owt we've let go or lost ,that's if we do sign him

No KK not seen him play, its a fair point but ive seen goulding play and im not bowled over yet.
