What mess? The reported £800,000 transfer fee we received or the unreported compensation we received from the Bulls when he came back? Both deals brokered by the man some posters on here have accused of bad management.

What mess did we get in with Harris Loz?

So who do you class as a 'quality' British player?? Someone who is first team SL???

Are you seriously saying that any player from any team in SL who is linked to RU should get their salary subsidised by the RFL??? So a mediocre player who is linked to RU should get their salary subsidised?

I know what you are saying about British players, but if a player wants to go and try the other code, he is going to. IMO I want players who want to play for my team, and for England, not players who have been swayed by money and are not enthusiastic about it.

Thank you.

No. I am saying that any quality british player, possibly below a certain age, there should be some assistance to keep him in the game. That quality of course has to have some kind of measurement. But you can hardly argue on an International.

Possibly that help does not have to come direct in money terms from the RFL. It could be in the form on concessions on the salary cap for homegrown academy produced products. Therfore encouraging the use more of British players.

I dont have the answer, but the fact we now have 14 teams, and more players required to spread around, we should do all we can to stop people leaving the game.

[size=200=redWho the f[iuc[/ik is leaving or has left the game to cause this panick amongst those of you too dim to answer DoubleAone's question.

FFS![/size

I know what you are saying but you can't knock a player from wanting to secure thier future financially. Smith is one of our best talents at present who should only get better and the RFL should help keep him in the game.

They wouldn't be able to keep all the english players but should do everything in thier power tokeep their best talent.

In the sense of the team structure when we lost him, I think the club IMO had a void to fill and to put a young Kevin Sinfield into the gap


yes the club benefited financially from Harris going

What a mess eh?





Am I just tired and grumpy or have the stupidity levels amongst you fekkwitts gone through the roof today?

tired and grumpy

maybe those hard working lasses in the gym can help you out

What £800k mess

No such actual activity is required for jerking knees to start hitting tables in RL land. This flap happens on message boards every time a player is linked with a move to RU. I mean, when Walker and Ashton left Doomsday was upon us. There is, in fact, a disturbing parallel between this mind set and the "21st December 2102" thread...

You remind me of timone in the lion king when simba and narla are reunited when she's hunting poomba!!
Oh and "The monkey's his uncle"


P.s He didn't get a straight answer either!!
