| That last bit about kidding is the one that's the hardest to interpret. He's quite clearly not happy about what's happened before he posted that, but what he means by it, god knows.

Not enough information to say this. I can think of explanations that would not reflect badly on us.

The more these tweets go on, the less worried I get about the Bulls being in the wrong over this one.

you carnt be proud of that tho can you (the clubs told im were to go ) , the way i understand it , is walker has signed a contract with bulls , one that was offered to him , it sent back and every thing kosure , but then bradford have to register there signing with the rfl , in which orford came up , so they dont send to rfl walkers registration , and try and wriggle out of the walker signing , even tho hes signed the contract offered , so bradford think it ok to do this as the rfl didnt register him ! in my eyes the player signed a contract , so only bradford to blame , this is only my opinion tho !

| The contract is only completed if a working visa is also sent, Walkout hadn't sent one for whatever reason, hence the Bulls could say we haven't signed him and could sign Orford, its a technical point and a crucial one for both parties, it will be intersting to see Sod Halls take on it and also why are the GMB involved in a non members problem??

An opinion based on assumption as opposed to fact.
You're assuming he's signed a contract. That's a hell of an assumption to make considering what information has actually been released. At no point has anyone said that both parties had signed a contract (as far as I've seen anyway).
I'm not saying it was signed or it wasn't. However before I decide to blame one party or the other, I'd rather know that particular fact for sure.

| rlChris Walker wants to remain in NRLrl
rlChris Walker says he signed his Bulls deal on 13th Augrl
now the 2nd story has some interesting points to it. Mainly with Walker going on about the offers he's knocked back since he allegedly signed with Bradford. Now, why would he get offers if he's already signed a contract?
Surely the way it would go for a club to sign a player would be they[the club] approach the players agent and ask about availibility of the player. Surely if you're an agent and have a client who's agreed a contract, why wouldn't you say "sorry, my client has signed a contract already so we're not looking at offers". sounds more like Orr has said "we've had an offer from Bradford for x amount, but what can you offer?"
