Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Is it any different to clubs basically breaking the salary cap rules by paying ' image rights ' to gain an unfair advantage ? |

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg |

| Quote: SEB "Yes but that's a problem that is going to diminish, not grow.
People have way over-reacted to all this I think. There aren't any hidden loopholes been uncovered or sneaky cheating going on, nor are the RFL being weak. IMO, they have come up with a fairly innovative set of rules that are designed to encourage home grown talent development and gradually reduce reliance on overseas players whilst at the same time being careful to avoid contravening any EU employment laws and being unfair to any players already here at the time of rule changes.
The non-Aussie/Kiwi passport method of escaping the Overseas Quota rules is one that's been known about by anyone for years and that's why the RFL created the home-grown and Fed-Trained categories. Yes, the rate of reduction of overseas players has probably been much slower that hoped for (clubs should probably have been down to 5 by now), but progress is being made.'"
Maybe so, but new nationalities should not be gained AFTER being signed. |

The Rugby Football League are in the process of reviewing the video that you are referring to. We do not condone behaviour of this nature and have contacted the player’s employer, Hull F.C., who have confirmed that they are dealing with the incident under their club rules.

No it's not, the only situation a club should have more to spend is the 50k rule. |

If you are referring to Big Australian/Tongan/New Zealander Willie (please circle one option) then I agree with you 100%.
If anyone here thinks what has gone on with regard to signing this player is OK, they need their bumps inspecting 
Blatant abuse of the rules....6 point deduction for the season and ejection from SL are the only punishment that will stop this sort of thing happening again 
...or they could just be made to merge with their bigger and better neighbours  |

WEST COAST PIRATES
NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9857.jpg |

rules were adhered to and no special dispensation given.
The only dispensation is for players who were contracted before the rule change, something all clubs are eligible to do. Within 3 years HKR will be down to 6, the 5 non fed trained players plus Lovegrove who is overseas but fed trained.

That would be true if galea had his eu passport, but he hasn't. |

That was never actually stated, but the way the rules were worded meant that everyone assumed as much. Nobody knew about the Quota and Fed/Non Fed spots being two separate lists. Since Quota players also count as Non Fed, they can apply for exemption under the 2008 rule like any other Non Fed player can. |

So why would it matter for galea to have a eu passport?
Have I just asked the same question on two threads??  |

Maybe so but I'm interested in how the quota system works, if I've got it wrong I'm keen to be put right.
Which I have now, I think, thanks to kosh. |

| If Galea is the one they were trying to get a Maltese passport for then it only mattered in so far as Willie mason would not have needed to go for tea with the Tongan Prime Minister with the aim of getting a tongan passport. Because there were probs with galea obviously they deemed that the Tongan Prime Minister was a softer touch  |
