| Quote Exeter Rhino="Exeter Rhino"The RFL should have hired a good legal team when they came up with this idea - now it just seems half baked.
IIRC it was HKR who opened the loophole so they could keep Stanley Gene on the books. I thought it only applied to players already in SL at the time of the new rules being introduced. Has anything changed?'"
Nope, nothing's changed. Hull KR will conform to the requirements for quota players and home grown players in their SL squad.
Nothing to see here, move along.

| Quote Wadski="Wadski"Why were some of these future England players released by Wigan then?'"
Would Robinson get in the Wigan side? No.
Would Kevin Brown? Probably just about.
Kevin Brown is the only player Wigan have released that I would want back in the side. Was there any truth to the rumours we nearly signed him for next year before he signed his new contract?

| Quote Andy Gilder="Andy Gilder"It's not their fault, they couldn't develop any youth players while they were out of SL apparently...'"
Wrong, the truth been that because Hull FC were a much, much bigger club for many years they got the pick of all the good local talent. HTH.

| Quote MacBlondie="MacBlondie"What a joke.
I take it Aussie Rejects KR are exempt from the rules that everyone else has to adhere to with regards over seas signings?'"
No, that's just been silly.
'Aussie Rejects' - strange consider Galea and Newton were both in the 2009 SL Dream Team, and Dobson (by been in the Dream Team in 08 & 09) has been the best scrum-half in SL the last 2 years.

Did he sign for you?
Robbo wouldn't get in because you have Leuleui - an import - hence my point.

...so Wigan should have the worse Brit, and Huddersfield would have...who exactly? McNally?
How dare Wigan develop so many players. Who said you have to keep them once you develop them? Nobody. With a bit more time there will be a few more successes from smaller clubs, like how well Huddersfield have done this year.

| In the last three years the overseas quota has dropped from 10 to 5, there was a reported 97 nrl trained players in sl last season.
I wonder how many for 2011?

Brown wouldn't get in the side ahead of Tommy.
I said was their any truth in that he "nearly" signed.
What is your point again?

Imports over developing your own talent.
On one hand you bag England selections then on the other you totally miss the point over your own teams choices for imports over English.

On the other hand, you could argue a 25% increase from the 2010 number to the 2011 number. Depends how you wish to look at it

Again, Wigan do develop talent.
They don't have to stay in Wigan to be developed, they can become good players elsewhere like Brown, Robinson. Just because you pay them and we have what we feel is better, doesn't mean they are Huddersfield doing their bit for England. Huddersfield didn't bring them through.

| At first glance, i thought this thread was about some disgruntled Celtic FC fan spray painting a "welcome to Hull" sign.

You could have said/ probably did say the same when announcing signings of Kirk Netherton, Chas I'Anson, Ryan Esders, Frankie Mariano, Scott Spaven, Lee Gomersall, James Haynes etc. Clubs have to have a certain number of homegrown players on the books under the franchise rules. Cheerleading Rovers meeting these minimum requirements as a sign of a brave new world of Rovers' squad being built around a nucleus of homegrown players is getting a bit giddy in this context.
