Id rather the club play the situation like they have, rather then shout out that he's signed only for him not to get a visa (or any other reason for not coming) as it happened to numerous clubs last season and everyone should of learned from that.
I see RLfans have put Cinton in the Rovers fantasy team.

Reading between the lines of that article the mail seem to know as little as the rest of us. Conjecture and hearsay with no substance, I'm certain the got that all from on here and as for registered with the RFL I think they meant registered with the RLF FFL....

I'd also take the £200k per year with a pinch of salt.

Maybe, but its not often reported in that sort of context and is open to misinterpretation which lends more weight to this being a story with very little or no substance.

However, [b]the money may be split in a way which will see him earn the vast majority in his second season at the club, during the 2011 campaign[/b]
I read it as £200,000 over the 2 years, not per year, i may be wrong.
wasn't this made illegal? or just in nrl?
