We should also go back to the point of when the paperwork was lodged with the British Embassy in Canberra .... Have they been sat on the documents since we signed him months ago or was the brown envelope handed to them a couple of weeks ago ?
What has our MP done about it ?
Was he applying for a passport or visa or both ?
On the plus side, I can see it being well in to the season before he gets here and that will just give us the right sort of boost for the run on the Challenge Cup. All being well, we're going to get a fresh player just at the time in the season when some of the rest of the squad will be starting to take a few knocks.
except he wont be eligible to play in challenge cup. They've done away with the second signing deadline this year iirc so if he aint here for your first cup game he's ineleigible for all of them.

No I don't, like every other driver on here.
But what I did after my 1st ,and only speeding conviction, was to take care in those circumstances where you're likely to get caught.
That's common sense something you clearly lack.

so if you was caught out again, then you would class yourself as stupid? or would you think that you've been unlucky on that day? (as a new camera appeared over night, or police never normally have speed trap on the road you was on, or even just that you have a 5/10 seconds lapse in concentration which lead to you going over the speed limit)
with out knowing details of eastwood's speeding offences, you can't comment on his stupidity

And do league games stop whilst the Challenge Cup is on ? Of course not, so we can further rotate the squad as and when he does arrive.

Maybe Gary should have just kept quiet and checked his own situation with Eastwood rather than claiming the moral high ground.
Indeed
Given that the majority of professional rugby players (and I'd expand that to "sportsmen in general") are the big daft lads at school who, if it weren't for the fact that they were good at sports would have ended up as big unemployed daft lads, then for someone who should know all about being a big daft lad struggling to find employment outside the game, (even I could get a job at Safestyle FFS) there's not a lot of moral high ground to look for let alone take, is there ?
