If where looking at World Cup players, what do people think of this guy for USA , still only 25, only 8 starts for parramatta last year, looked very good in both games for USA so far, plays at 6, wouldn't take mega bucks to sign and we need a replacement for holdsworth. Thoughts?

I thought he had a great game last week probably in the shop window as well, he might be worth a punt like you say he can not be on mega bucks at the moment good call

Contracted to Parramatta unfortunately, but then again contracts mean nothing nowadays........................

Do you reckon Gentle would do us a favour?!!

maybe he s the Parramatta player hull were reportedly looking at?

Would he get a Visa though? not sure if playing international RL for USA helps his chances with a visa, as you can surely claim he's an international standard player?

cant see a problem getting visa.hes played plenty of first grade games.

If the RFL support the visa he'll be ok

One of the best halves in the comp at the moment imo.

I've liked the look of him too, not scared to get stuck into the tackle as well.

He's had a cracking WC so far.

He could be the player we need at half back. He doesn't just have a lot of skill, but his leadership & organisation of the team seem good too. I think Hull really lack that leader, someone who others will follow, respect and will galvanize the team. Paulo is currently doing that with a team who have been together a matter of days, mixed with players ranging from the NRL, down to part-time in the American comp.

Hope we are keeping tabs on him. He looks the real deal in both attack and defence. Very skilful and one of the stand out players in the World Cup so far. Could be just the sort of player we are looking for.

Talented player, needs a rocket up his though.

Im sure youll know more on the Visa (other clearance/work permits rtc) stuff mate, but i was told that any player who is in the World Cup will get a Visa

Get him signed up!
