BBC sport homepage. On top headline news ticker. Says more soon.

Just listening to Yorkshire Radio and they are saying that Eastwood Visa has been rejected, and the reason could be a previous Drink Driving conviction.

Guys he’s not joking either

Why would he need a visa if he's applying for a passport

bit of a bugger. so we may have t wait longer. regardless of a conviction etc etc as his father is english he is eligable for a british passport so they'll just have to apply for that. didnt he apply for a visa instead of a passport just to get here faster?

Great news

mick why dont you go post that on totalrl yer not banned agin are yer?

Would a conviction affect a Passport application?

Might take a while. Is it worth looking at alternatives?

And they will still be better than Saints this year. How depressing that must be.

A collective groan can be heard from all the pie shops and takeaways in Leeds.

You look a little red in the face, might wanna get that seen to

what?

I said

The irony is not lost on me...

Yes & No

pie shops and takeaways thats for poverty stricken scrounging little hamlets like sintellins

Mr Eastwood has a rather rotund physique, which indicates a limited discipline towards portion control, or a preference for food items with a high calorie content. The all over plumpness of his body suggests alcohol consumption isn't the cause of the problem.

But anyway, great news on his visa application being denied. The fewer ex-con Aussies over here the better. Super League really does have to stop trying to sign players who are only available because no club in the NRL would sign them because of their unsavory behaviour.
