I'd say there's egg on Albert's face, but I think it's actually Casty's love juices.

There is no player born and raised in the USA or South Africa, who played his junior or professional rugby league in USA or South Africa, who has scored a try in the NRL.

France born, raised and trained Remi Casty is in a different category from the Australian trained "USA" and "South Africa" players.

So because Jarrod Saffy didn't play junior league in South Africa means he is no longer South African?

I'll pay this. The first frenchman born in "France" to score a try in the NRL was Pelo not Casty. Also played professionally in France before coming to the NRL.

But you are wrong! Dimitri Pelo never scored a try in the NRL. He made 5 appearances for Canberra Raiders in 2012 and scored 0 tries.

"jason_taylor" was commenting on my omission of Pelo from the list of French men who have played in the NRL. He never claimed that Pelo had scored a try. Read his post carefully.

So all the smug, gloating Twatfaces and Digeridoos from north Queensland can wipe the smiles off their faces because:

On Saturday June 7th, 2014, Remi Casty became the first Frenchman to have scored a try in the NRL.

Remi Cadbury is a delicious chocolate,The origins of chocolate can be traced back to the ancient Mayan and Aztec civilisations in Central America.

But you still haven't dealt with the fact USA had 2 tryscorers before the Frogs

Dominique Peyroux is not, despite his name, French. He has some French ancestry but more Pacific Island ancestry. Peyroux was born in New Zealand, and has represented Cook Islands, not France, in the World Cup.

I thought Dominique Peyroux was a French female adult movie star, specialising in videos from zoo.365.com and mpx videos.

In all seriousness there are a lot of youg french players not getting opportunities in the top 14 due to the rising influx of foreigners. Catalans and NRL clubs should be targeting these players with concessions in the cap for bringing across players from union

Just a thought but new Caledonia is close to Australia yet I have never heard any mention of league in that territory or a y efforts to spread it there. Does anyone know the story there?

I've been on this forum for a while now but I just don't get the pettiness of some who get a rouse of proving someone wrong. Big deal if what is stated isn't totally correct, some posters love to throw stones but don't actually contribute anything with substance, they just love to abuse others to get some sort of personal satisfaction.

I come on here to discuss footy and most threads are filled with inane dribble and a pissing contest, take it to the appropriate section if you want to be a juvenile.

Cadbury chocolate came from Birmingham and can trace its origins to some Brummies trying to come up with something halfway decent to come from Birmingham

All other efforts resulted in abject failure

To date the only other decent thing to come from Birmingham is the road out of the place

Oh hold on. I forgot about pork scratchings. The greatest invention in the history of food. Deep fried pig fat. I take it all back Birmingham your pork gives me more of a semi than Albert gets from Remi

Remi Casty almost scored his 3rd NRL try tonight. He just fell short twice. Overall he had a superb game.

A brilliant decision by Trent Robinson to bring Remi to Australia.

We need more French players in the NRL.

The three best French choices for the future:

Morgan Escare (Full back), Eloi Pelissier (Hooker) Kevin Larroyer (2nd rower).
