| As long as SL Chairmen and coaches put club interests before those of the national team or the game as a whole, then despite rulings and caps on the number of overseas players any club can have, they will always have the maximum they are allowed. When Maguire was appointed coach at Wigan he will have been briefed to make them the most successful club in the league. To maintain last year's position he has signed three top Aussies in Finch, Hoffman and Adam Blair? You cannot blame him. But if the national teams needs were considered we would be developing more of our own talent and relying less on imported talent. Cricket have got it right according to Shane Warne. A vibrant County Competition with promotion and relegation, which exposes England's youngsters to top flight experience in the top division, which is then called upon by the country as and when it is needed. I know cricket has its own problems (and imported players) but it does seem to be getting the needs of the Counties (clubs) balanced with those of the national team at the moment. Let's hope our game can do the same.

Thats a very strange way of trying to take away from the good work St's have done in this respect.

it is indeed, your attempts to build straw men, attack them, then confuse yourself are some of your most obvious.
But its still funny to see you slink away, unable to get even the basics of your argument right and have to reappear here hiding behind starbug. Its sweet in a way

I'm not trying to take away from any work St Helens or anyone else has done. Just correct any misconceptions about Dan Brotherton's route into rugby league.

| Quote: crucrucrusaders "At the moment stands at 10. I was very surprised to find that teams such as Hull KR that have way over 100 years on our fledgling club in a rugby league heartland have as many as 9 of their own.
I find that a lot more shocking than a team preparing for their 3rd year in Super League and only their 6th year in rugby league altogether from a non traditional rugby league area.
Can we just reply with 'look at Rovers' every time somebody has a go at our Aussie Army from now on?'"
excellent point
