Totally agree, anybody with any sense would have a plan B lined up should plan A fail particularly when others in similar instances have failed with their plans.

For me there is still a bit of hope as Crocker didn't just appeal but reapplied with character references and testimonials to back up his application etc. I assume the reason for the re application was after seeking professional advice on this matter.

Time will tell soon I guess, but if he is unsuccessful for this season I hope we still bring him in for next season.

bar-b-q

If there's nothing on that link, then there's nothing actually been reported or rumoured, Wilfs and Herts FCs 'sources' are only as good as ours on here.
It was only last week Crocker and Purcell were confident it would come through and there has been nothing in the Aus press to suggest anything different.....as yet.

Its doing my head in now. Don't think he will come this year.

Who is this crocker you all speak of,have I missed something??????

He's a rare, mythical creature thought to be found in the Antipodes.

Is he coming Coach?

All I know is that I pace the house everyday like an expectant Father waiting for the news. I don't think I can hold on for much longer waiting for news on MC's visa. For the love of jeff, will someone make an announcement soon and let us know either way.

He doesnt have a clue Ceet!! Rumours like the rest of us have heard!!





P.S. Nice plug by Jenks on KCFM last night for the Irregs!

I have to say I'm the same. I'm continually checking on here and the Aussie press. It's starting to really do my head in!

Tell me about it. Every morning when i get up I trawl the internet looking for a breaking news story. I then get disapointed and go to work after kicking my dog.

Part of me thinks they are awaiting Lauakis visa result and are going to make massive double, season making, go forward taking, awesome breaking, monstrous Clint Newton p**s taking, point scoring, record breaking announcement. Then I think nah, MC wont be coming and go back to nervous waiting, pacing and internet checking.

me too.


Mind you, I am an expectant father

I thought I was the only one kicking your dog. No wonder the poor thing looks fed up.

Congrats Mate, I hope miss HKR 2009 isn't the expectant mother.

Absolutely fine, Crocker is, by all accounts, still confident, I just pass on what I hear as do others on here.

This particular source which I obviously share with my pal from herts moves in NRL circles and until recently held a senior management position 'off field' at a NRl club. He was incidentally the chap who gave me a run down on Sam Moa (which I again put on RL fans) after it was said we were intersted in him!

Just passing on what I have heard!

We know Wilf, and we are grateful, some people are just jealous so they have a dig whenever they can.

I dont think it is a case jealousy or "having a dig" i think it is a case that some are unwilling to accept the chances of him not coming are equal to him coming.

The people i got my information from 2 weeks ago and those that know me, know who i spoke to are very high up in and in regular contact with the club.

They were very confident when i spoke to them that his re-application was done correct this time, with alot more information and where very confident of it been passed.

Ill be able to find out more tomorrow as a certain someone should be back from holiday tonight.

no she turned me down as I don't have the required pedigree of breeding.

i.e I'm not related

Is there any news on Hame's arrival?

Or Chicken Teriyaki as Radders called him in the HDM

Hope your right coach. Crocker and Hame for the derby, come on you ulllah!!!!!!!

No news... and specualtion continues.. once again thread turned into rumours etc.. lets wait for another official announcement. Hopefully this one will of been worth the wait!!!
