What are the rules now about players not being named in the squad yet making the 17?'"
The Squad Declaration rules are silent on replacements after the 48 hour deadline but people here believe that if a player becomes unavailable it is at the discretion of the RFL

I remember about a decade ago, Pies blatantly spending over the salary cap to buy Fielden to play against us, in an attempt to cheat their way out of relegation.
As I recall Feilden was sat in the dressing room in his kit, waiting for the RFL to approve his registration to play against us.
Wasn't he ruled a Wigan player about 20mins before kick off? Now either the listing of the team sheet wasn't mandatory back then or the whole system is a farce and you technically can do as you please....or perhaps you can't do as you please unless your Wigan, who always seem to have a different set of margins to everyone else.
Obi wane kenobi. I didn't have him down for mind games. I hope he does play. Run at him all day and he will be blowing out of his trumper within 10 mins.
