In some cases, the return against investment may be proved a failure. Pauli hasn't delivered and Randall has been too injury prone. Cost of flights and accommodation must make it more expensive than a home grown player.
HOWEVER
We are in Super League and if anyone could find the team that won away at Cas it would be interesting to see as I seem to remember we only had 2 or 3 UK lads, Rooney comes to mind for one.
It is a gamble and the injury list this year has hit all round.

Only had two English lads in the 2006 million pound game, Rooney & David March.

You are obsessed (edited spelling to cover my shame) Vastcap.
Put him on ignore if you have a problem with what he posts.

Why should I? I’m expressing my opinion about him just like you did or are you the only one allowed to do so.

The vastcap jibe, seriously for a mod that’s incredibly childish and very hypocritical seeing as you tell off others for doing exactly the same. I await an apology assuming you’re big enough.

Arona would be captain for me.

He would for me too. The bloke is 100% Trinity and I think would play the Captains role on the pitch, which I don't think Miller does, In fact, that might be what is affecting Miller because his form has without doubt dipped this season.
