www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/s ... 66,00.html BANISHED Cronulla star Greg Bird last night finally broke his silence about a controversial move to France by declaring: "I was over the constant harassment in Australia."
Bird, 25, yesterday modelled his new Catalans jumper in the southern French city of Perpignan and is set to debut for the club on Sunday morning (AEDT) against Castleford in Super League.
Angry at his critics yet excited at playing again, Bird opened up to The Daily Telegraph, saying from France: "I'm just relieved to be over here and back in a football environment and back around a team again. I just want to play footy again.
"I'm enjoying it over here away from the constant harassment. I was over the judgmental people (in Australia).

Dont pin your hopes on Greg Bird to bring you success he is nothing but an overpriced, overrated poser. To small to be in the forwards and not skilled enough for #6. Although most #6's in the English super league are mere shadows of there Australian counterparts...

Have a read around the site and the board and you'll see that we've pinned nothing on Bird's shoulders and are quite scornful of the signing. Even if he turns out to be the greatest players on earth (not going to happen), I'll still be critical of this move. |

De-registered Raguin to fit him on the 20/25 thing. No more than eight overseas players will play on any given gameday |

OK, do those new non-Federation quota rules not apply to Catalan then, is 8 a self-imposed quota? |

Self-imposed, correct. I can't remember the timetable for us falling into line with everyone else, but I'd be happy if we'd broken some rule or other and we had to kick Bird out. As it is, we're relaying on the Australian judiciary. Go Australian judiciary!! |
