Your back again Mario?????

If you read the rest of the report , not just the bit you want to stir the poop with, you will also find that David Fafita plays for us????

SO don't take what you read and write as gospel.

now go back to Leigh and bury your head in the sand. bye Mario.

The same article reckons that David Fifita is currently with Salford, so accuracy isn't always an indicator.

Saying that, if Lui was going, Carney is a step up in class.

I read the following so don't know if it's been revised.

David is currently with Wakefield but has been in talks with Newcastle coach Nathan Brown.

Todd Carney on the other hand would be at least a level up from Lui and is the sort of signing that would have me rushing to get my season ticket in a way that Tasi never would or could.

I see this a lot with other clubs, but I remember we tried in 2008/9 but it couldn't happen due to criminal record and visa. http://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/n ... for-giants Then this http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_l ... 817444.stm Think it was why he eventually went to Cats, French restrictions a lot slacker. Is there a timescale for these kind of applications and refusals?

Koukash said tonight that Lui is staying at Salford
Make of that what you will

With ref to your above with Todd Carney not being granted a visa to the UK , I understand all that, so he signed for catalans , i have no problems with that.

But why was he allowed to play in the UK as a Catalans player. ???? when he was refused a visa in the UK to play. ????????

Re: Koukash wants Todd Carney : Mon Oct 24, 2016 8:07 pm  

May have been an employment issue, where his employers are etc. Maybe length of time working in uk? Unsure just remember us losing out. Good luck if you do, cracking player. Things may change with brexit too.

He was refused a visa to reside in the UK,. France granted him said visa which means he was able to play\visit the UK as a part of the EU.
