Do you think its about time the whole Quota business is scrapped as its just become a farce with teams just signing Tongans and ex crusaders players to get around not having Bristish players in there team.

The whole reason for the Licence system was to promote British Players like Saints have, we might as well go back to promotion and relegation

Most clubs have reduced overseas players though only 3 or 4 clubs are letting the side down.

It's not worked and it will never work. The club owners are too short sighted to see the damage they are doing.

While rules exists clubs like Wigan and Hull KR will always look to go beyond those as they feel rules are beneath them.

The number of overseas players is reducing year on year while the number of homegrown players is increasing year on year. The old quota system was seriously flawed, the new fed trained rules in conjunction with the quota are far better and will have a serious impact on the number of overseas players in SL. Especially in the next 4 or 5 years as those currently exempt either retire or move back to the NRL.

No it wasn't the "whole point" of the licensing system, it was part of it but the licensing was also to try and create stability and long term planning instead of the short term-ism that was evident at far too many clubs.

I think the fed trained quota is brilliant.

Once all the exemptions drop away we'll have the situation we all want - 3/4 overseas players in a squad.

What and have no limits on the number of overseas players? Madness.

We'd have a good England team though, the more the merrier

The rfl need to be more strict on the rules of the quota system. At the moment it seems like there's more loopholes then there are rules.

I don't believe it will miraculously make the England team world champions like some people think.

What will make them world champions is clubs investing more on youth development and to promote the game.

So you think the answer to the number of overseas players in our competition is to scrap the quota rule?

Do you not see a contradiction in this?

And if you think someone being Tongan gets them off the system then you clearly don't understand the system.

My point was why have something in place and then not police it.

The RFL keeps changing the rules of the oversea players regulations what is it that a player who had one year left of his contract with Crusaders suddenly signs a 3 year contract with Hull KR how is that justified. The RFL should of said that any player who had a contract with crusaders could be taken over by another club and be exempt but any extended contract would not be exempt.
