Talking to GH yesterday and he says we are just waiting for the final paperwork to come through and that there are no other issues of concern.

Really? I think GH is telling a few porky pies. They may well get their work permit Visa through this week, who know's, but it certainly should have been a concern.



There was obviously some problem for the players still to be waiting now, even though they were originally down for playing a month ago.



Of course it could just have been a paperwork issue, but there was still obviously a problem that someones messed up with.

Completely agree i did'nt think there would any issues seeing as they have both played over here already so some sort of "admin" problem must of arisen.

He seemed very confident that it was a formallity so time will tell.

Why?



Presumably they will have had to reapply for the appropriate paperwork and who knows how long the backlog is at the UKBA currently.



Perhaps Leeds submitted everything in what they assumed would be good time but it's just taken longer to get to the front of the queue than everyone expected?

Hauraki will be playing against Crusaders fwih.

lmao.

Leeds Rhinos appear to be making a habit of employing players with Visa issues.



I guess they are perhaps just unlucky in that respect rather than incompetent.



Yes, that must be it.

Would you like to explain to us what the "issue" is as you understand it Keith?

Now you know he can't do that, as there isn't one.....

The Leeds website states that Hauraki is 'awaiting clearance to play', what is the hold up? www.therhinos.co.uk/news/15785.php
