Have I missed something? Who says we were trying to avoid going over the cap?

no still just rumour like uate

If Uate isn’t a done deal, then something very odd is going on.

It’s in the press in Australia. It’s on the NRL website. Its on Manly’s website. It’s even in the Fiji Times. The only place where it hasn’t been confirmed is Huddersfield!

With what happened with Woolford perhaps they are waiting until a work visa is approved for him?

Hastings would appear to have a clean record and the Manly incident shouldn’t make any difference but I would again see the logic in announcing after his Visa is approved if we do sign him.

As far has Wakeman is concerned you have it utterly wrong.

Then we must have gone over the cap as Ormsby and Wakeman were here at the start of the season....

Yep who haven’t announced it because
UATE HAS NOT YET SIGNED A CONTRACT!

Re: jackson hastings : Sat Jun 23, 2018 3:26 pm  

Interesting. If his mum is English “not by descent” then he’s almost certainly a British citizen and won’t need a visa.
