How? It was the RFL that stopped him signing for Bradford?

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.

Are you really this thick or are you putting it on?

If he can't play for Bradford, he shouldn't play for Cats. :wink: :)

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

be a different story comming from you . if bird played for manly :roll:






winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11

Perfect Pimbletts Pies wrote:So when is his trial anyway? Will he not have to go back to Australia for that?
http://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.

:wink: 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 8)
