Here's another dilemma for the rfl . I thought sporting visas only allowed players to play for their own club only. Is Lieului an overseas player.

Yeah good point

I also thought they had to be under a certain age as well.

Tony Smith interview on Warrington Worldwide Web includes, "He also talks about the problems with the dual registration system which means overseas players can't play for Swinton if they are out of form or coming back from injury."

Surely that won't stop them. Everyone seems to be making up the 'rules' as they go along!

Its all a joke ,thats not very funny and will make our competition more pointless, then it already is and drive more speccies away ...IMHO.

While I hate doing it, at the moment I am thinking of giving the Swinton and Hunslet away games a miss and unless the RFL act to stop what I see as abuse of the system more games are likely to follow.

I think he probably has a working VISA like they have down under and Leeds are only his sponsor but within his VISA period he is able to take other work on.

I can’t really see this as an issue, he still ‘works’ and I presume being paid by Leeds.

So does Tony Smith not understand the visa system. Didn't rangi chase require a new visa if he had moved to Hull.

& yet plays for England

Correct. Though Leuleui has been in England since 2007 so may not actually require a visa now that he's been here over 5 years?

I only went to a handfull of games last season and i doubt i will go to any this season i havent had a fall out with Leigh but i am completely dissolusioned with the sport its not RL its SL they are destroying the game whilst feathering their own nests. Does Nigel Wood now earn more than the Prime minister just out of interest?

You can mess with the RFL, but I wouldn't think it's a good idea to take on the UK Border Agency!

But staying away from Leigh in effect punishes Leigh. By all means refuse to fund other teams coffers.
