Quote: Old_Faithful_IAKW "So apparently the RFL has rlnew quota rulesrl, in a bid to discuss the rules as they apply to the league/sport and not to be accused of being 'jealous of Hull KR signing Mason' I've opened up a new thread.
So essentially we've gone back to the old system? 5 quota players, as many Kolpak as you want? Why? Surely this is a step backwards? The one reason I can think of is that they can't legally uphold this ruling? However someone on the Hull forum suggested the non-fed rules were copied from what soccer clubs had been doing?
Finally, does that now mean that Hull only have 2 quota players and can bring in 3 more Aussies? If so what a joke, our club has invested in English youth both in the form of buying/retaining players (Sharp, Westerman and Tickle) and also bringing youth through (Houghton and Lynne).'"
It would appear so. My question to you sir, is if Hull now went on to sign Greg Inglis, Cooper Cronk and Billy Slater, would you still consider it a joke.
