It's not their fault, apparently.

They've only had 100 years to get a proper youth system in place and develop their own talent.

I guess if they storm the league next year, all's justified. The club just appears to operate in a very 'Up-Yours' kinda way. I don't know if this courts favour or criticism from their own?

Poor by HKR that.

They're doing exactly what I fear more clubs will do in years to come as English players get picked off by Union and the NRL and the NRL salary cap increases and that's filling their squad with cheap 2nd graders rather then trust their own youngsters.

We then have Lincoln Withers and Ryan O'hara who got dispensation from the RFL with the Crusaders mess. And Rhys Lovegrove who is technically Australian but counts on our Home-grown list due to the age when he signed for Rovers and being eligible for our academy teams. So we have 11. It would have being 9 as without Crusaders going bust we'd not have signed O'Hara and Withers.'"


You still technically have Taulapapa on your books also.

Him and McDonnel will be interchangeable on the lists I think.

Misi has now gone. He said on his twitter that he's reached an agreement with Rovers.

You struggling to count?

Shannon Mcdonnel
Jake Webster
Blake Green
Michael Dobson
Ryan O'Hara
Lincoln Wither
Mickey Paea
Joel Clinton
Ben Galea
Constantine Mika
Rhys Lovegrove

I make that 11 still very poor from Rovers. Hopefully this will be offset by some of the fantastic youngster coming through at Hull KR.

Blake Green Is Non Fed as he wasn't trained in England & Quota as he's an Australian, Same as Joel Clinton.

We're coming to make some noise!:



What's the problem 4 or 5 of our 11 can play for England or one of the other home nations!

Also no rules have been broken, I pay to watch the best rugby league on offer at club level. I am sure an Aus side wouldn't care if they played the whole New Zealand squad in the NRL so why should it matter here?

International level should be about where you are from or where your parents are from, nothing more. However as proven in our sport and others this isn't the case so why should club rugby be bound by stupid laws preventing us having as good a product as the NRL?

The Premiership wouldn't be the best league in the world if it wasn't filled with foreign players, don't hear many moan about that.

My apologies I hadn't realised the 2 lists of 5 posted had names multiplied on both.

P.s. You can't call Murrell & Lovertone 'academy products' surely?

Indeed, Mason and Taulapapa (sp). Maybe why they're ending up with 4th rate NRL players.

So you've got 4 first team regulars out of them 14, one of which is from Leeds' academy and another is an Aussie. About half of them don't even have a squad number.
