Cracking signing for you guys. I hope Sky maintain the same deal in 2015 as this year, just so I can see this guy play!

Shame on the Dragons.

A 'man' who pi**es in his own mouth is their choice. The NRL are convinced this prat brings the game into dispute.

A gifted player but a dreadful excuse for a man. Hopefully he wont be allowed to play in the UK.

Anyone know how many times this season the Dragons have had 12 or more Frenchmen in their 17?

Guess again.

He was dreadful then and he has got worse with age. A twenty eight year old man who thinks it is appropriate to urinate in his own mouth. Despite his talent the NRL realise that his persistent idiocy is unacceptable.

Not sure how the last line is relevant. There are plenty of other clubs in Super League who are far less efficient in their youth systems than us, having had far many more years to get it right....

And if he gets up to those tricks in Perpignan, Bernard will clear him from the club as he has with other mercenaries. Who are you to tell whether or not we should give him a chance? He's hardly the first or last rugby league player to be sucked in by the bad influences in Australia's media vacuum.

Feel free to list the plenty of other clubs in SL 2015 who will have as many non British players as Catalans will have non French. While you are at it highlight the other SL clubs that have as large a player catchment area as the Dragons.

Where did I say that I can tell the French to recruit or not recruit the p*** drinker? That is just something inside your head.

The media did not convict carney nor did they photo shop him. He is responsible for his own vile conduct. It would be sad if Bernard believes Carney's conduct is consistent with a family sport.

Calm down, stop spitting feathers, breathe, and listen. He didn't say anything about nationality, he said there are clubs who PRODUCE less players of their own than Catalan, he also correctly stated that ALL the other clubs in SL have a ready made pool of juniors and over 100 years of practice.

He is responsible, he lost a very lucrative career in the NRL, I would suggest he regrets it. Either way I've done worse while involved in said "family sport"
