Is this really true in our current plight or just a media ploy to counter balance all the negativity surrounding our well publicised financial woes?
He's probably in France checking out his French World Cup Squad.
Good news about Poore staying (or at least wanting to if the coaching staff remain).

Hope he flew economy

Dont worry?
He's forgot his spending money!
He's at Sydney Roosters working with Trent Robinson!!
I'm hoping Sonny Bill Williams will fit in his suitcase!

And we will pay them with what? Seems very odd to me. We are scratching around to find the remains of the 400k we still owe but we have paid for RA to go to Australia and scout for players.

What about keeping Liam Kay? Priorities Mr Agar!

A couple of hours with JD might be beneficial

Agree. Think Wildie, Trout, Walshaw and Goulding also need to be kept first if they are cheap and we can afford it.

Keeping your young talented players and raiding the championship would be more beneficial than a trip to aus,unless he his looking at his world cup squad

Are there enough Frenchmen playing in the NRL to justify a trip to Aus? or are the French team training there?

fair point unless hes doing a mcbanana and trying to 'convert' a few lol

If he's doing a fatnamara, we'll end up with Sinfield at stand off half next year when we could of had cooper cronk!

Think it's a mistake if the club has financed him to go to Aus when we haven't secured our own young players here and we don't have money to put a squad of 26 together for next season.

Tend to agree, he's been told to find a half to replace Smith, I dont think what Trinity can offer will secure anyone of note, they may as well put the funding into what we have.

It's holiday time for our guys, he has a lot of contacts down there, it's a great place to go, so maybe he's just combining work with leisure (at his own expense)?
