No room for Moa.
Is this 100% accurate? There seems to be so many different opinions on how the rules will work it's scary.
For example, Rovers have the following overseas players:
Fitzhenry
Webster
Dobson
Vella
Fisher
Lovegrove
Aizue
Newton
Galea
Gene
Lovegrove got classed as homegrown if I remember correctly, then there is the 'Gene' rule. Would Aizue also be classed under that rule? Say he is, that leaves them with seven overseas players. There's talk of Fitzhenry going back to Aus as he's OOC so that would leave them with six. However, they tried to sign O'Meley, which would have put them over the limit and I know they're still in the market for other overseas players. Unless they plan on getting rid of others off that list (can't see who to be honest), surely the overseas players rule has been lost in translation somewhere?
