Quote: salfordlad "We had the option of fielding 4 DC players last season albeit they did not have to be from 1 club.
Swinton have not been playing in Swinton for a long time and I wonder what we would have had for a fan base had we not been playing in Leigh for so long.
Lets hope they get their ground in Agecroft soon.'"
I too am impressed by the way Swinton have survived all these years, away from their home. A new home is now within reach, and I hope they can now flourish. I can remember when they were a top club, fielding several internationals and were feared by all. Some of our SL bretheren would do well to remember 'what goes around, comes around.' (or words to that effect!)
The purpose of my post was not to have a dig at Swinton, more the RFL rules, which appear to be ever changing. For example, the number of 'over age players' allowed on the Under 20's has already changed twice, which must be frustrating, when you have had to release players over the age of 20, only to discover you could actually have kept them in the first place!
