8 foreign players, I thought the rules (which I cant find!) say 5 or 6 players?

Ashton Simms
Blake Wallace
Chase Stanley
Cory Patterson
Jack Buchanan
Jake Butler Fleming
Josh McCrone
Darcy Lussick

Ryan Burroughs (Does he count as he is from the USA?)
Reni Maituai (French Canadian)
QLT (Leaving)

That's 8 foreign players, some of them must have EU/Kolpac rights. However, does anyone know the quota rules? Just tried to find it on the RFL website and your given a 250 page book full or jargon! I suppose its good to muddy the waters.

The rules must state that North American players don't count on the quota, as Ryan Burroughs is from the USA.

It wouldn't surprise me if the RFL are bending the rules just to get them in Super League.

UK,USA Jamaica don't count on their quota.
What's questionable is signing another quota spot player whilst all spots had gone.

Tom Armstrong released now by them...

Cost cutting..Worthy and Reni both picking up injuries v Dewsbury,with no depth they will now struggle.

Hopefully....

You're allowed 7 Non-Fed Trained players, the whole EU/Kolpac thing doesn't exist anymore. AFAIK Butler-Fleming is back at York so including Lussick they have the max of 7.
I didn't realise Chase Stanley was there, far too good a player for Championship, has had a horror run with injuries though

Thanks for that, were do you find the rules on quota players?

If a Championship club has a Canadian player, do they count on the quota? I would assume they wouldn't, as then Toronto would have an unfair advantage.

They'll be in the rules somewhere, not sure where exactly though but it's been that case for a few years now.

I wouldn't imagine a Canadian/American player would count as Non-Fed, if you had to have a minimum number of club trained and they were all Canadian/American then they'd all count towards Non-Fed

Section C1:4:2 of the Operational Rules state that Canadian/American/Jamaican (as someone pointed out earlier) don't count as Overseas for Toronto, it also states that you can have a max of 5 Overseas players, which is odd as it's definately 7!

Ryan Burroughs (Does he count as he is from the USA?) - where did he play his rugby up to 21?
Reni Maituai (French Canadian) - definitely non Fed trained

I get that as 9 non fed trained, with 7 allowed. Also isn't Emmitt classed as Australian now???

Burroughs doesn't count as Non-Fed for TW as he's American. Emmitt is Federation Trained (Saints) and didn't someone say Reni had left?

Burroughs is Non-Fed unless he played in a fed country between 16-20. One of the anomolies of the system that Rowley flagged when Jacks was released. Like Widdop also being non-fed if he was to play over here.

Cheeky!! He was hardly there long enough to unpack - if indeed he ever got there, en route to Toronto!
