| Quote: Durham Giant "Nice to know he has recieved game plans from McBanana.
apparently it consists of 3 lines.
1/ We will run the ball in via the forwards for five tackles.
2 / then we will kick it
3/ or you could try to to do something else'"
Could have sworn that was/is the Huddersfield game plan  |

Not under Nathan Brown it is attack from anywhere.
Eorl crabtree has made more off loads pre season than he did all last season.
You will see a lot of attacking and entertaining rugby from the giants this season.

All kidding aside I think the Giants will surprise a few this year but next year they really could be hitting the heights.
Nathan brown is no mug. |

| Quote: " “Greg Bird will have to wait until his day in court to prove his innocence and get back his life,” said his agent Chris Orr, in a statement this morning.
“Today he has had to endure more heartache as his application to secure a visa to take up his contract with the Bradford Bulls was denied due to facing a police charge.
“Rather than fight this decision through the appeals process, Greg has decided to have his day in court and prove his innocence before reapplying.
“The Bradford Bulls will support Greg throughout this period with a view of him joining them as soon as he has cleared his name.
“Neither Greg nor the Bradford Bulls will be making any further comment until after the court case on April 27.” '"
If cleared, and he does come - we'll be in with a shout come the end of the season  |

In what way? It was the UK that denied him the visa. Whether or not Britain granted or ultimately grants him a visa, Australia isn't involved, is it?
The only thing stopping him playing for some other NRL club is his agreement with his current employers that he won't. If he decided to sack the idea of coming over here, thus tearing up that agreement, the NRL would have to do something they've not yet done if they were to prevent him from playing in their comp.
the tough new approach is 100% a UK thing. |

Apologies - I meant the UK in Aus. (professional shorthand ) |

Some of us did point out that a pending case could be reason to refuse a Visa. |

Touche, didn't see this one coming tbh.
On the one hand i'm glad, we're meant to be a family sport and if Bird is sacked by one club for such an offense, SL clubs shouldn't be jumping in line for his signature but on the other, quality, quality player and SL will be worse off for him not being here.
