He'll be back home by the end of April - citing "family reasons" and by mutual consent with the club.

So if you have a Tongan passport you're classed as fed-trained? Brilliant, that's two more spots opened up for us then!

Unfortunately that's not the people that matter - club chairmen. |

He's not classed as fed trained now just non-quota. |

I'll wait to see what the RFL and club say. If the report is fair and accurate we'll get some grief - and for a change deserve it.

Bang on pal - is it any wonder we can't get close to the Aussies when clubs manipulate every loophole they can. |

If Galea hasn't secured his status, we should have re-signed him or signed Mason. Still, you ride your luck - I just hope we learn from it. I suspect the situation may be more nuanced - the OP has included the standard HDM disclaimer in the thread title - but even so. |

No: there's quota, non-federation trained and federation trained.
There is a total overseas limit of five players you can have, which is any combination of quota/non-federation trained players you like.
Quota players are Australians/New Zealanders that don't have exemptions/other passports like Mason. Non-fed players are what were kolpak players.
Last year you could have a maximum five quota players and one non-federation trained player as your overseas limit. |
