Either you are impressed by today’s announcement or you are trying to talk to my Scottish Terriers , I’m not sure which .Myself after reading reports it seems our latest signing has concerns over vaccinations ,which is why his contract in the NRL was curtailed , I truly hope we have found a way round this , I realise Derek and Chris Chester are not so naive as not to know this .

And how will he be getting here? You have to be vaccinated to board a flight into or out of Australia. "You must show evidence that you have been vaccinated, at least 7 days prior to international travel into or out of Australia, with a vaccine approved or recognised by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA)." https://www.health.gov.au/news/health-a ... -australia

There is no TESTING requirement.

There is a VACCINATION requirement.

Aussi Govt website states no jab no flight unless medically exempt.

I doubt there should be much issue in him ultimately getting here and when he should be quite an asset when he gets on the field.

Of course, if he does go well, it could just be a stepping stone to SL, and I don't mean with Leigh.

You did have doubt though didn't you?

Not a big reader are you?

ULTIMATELY I'm sure (and hope, because he will be exciting to watch), he will arrive.

The rules won't be the barrier in the end - it will be an NRL offer before he leaves, or an SL offer when he's here.

Q What would you say the probability of him finishing the season as a Leigh player are?

It’s still not a good look for the club or game is it, signing an unvaccinated player who can easily infect fellow players, causing possible postponements due to isolation periods for those other players. Meanwhile spectators might have to be triple vaccinated to get into stadiums. Talk about double standards!!

You can still catch Covid, and pass it on even if you are Jabbed.
