| Quote: Khlav Kalash "Clubs are allowed a maximum of 5 imports made up of quota and non-federation players. Federation players are British and French players plus imports who come over here and spends at least 3 years in a clubs academy or those who have an EU passport or a KOLPAK status and were already contracted to a uk club prior to February 2008.'"
Quote: Khlav Kalash "Clear as mud!'"
That is the most concise description I have seen

| I would say the Ali titi signing has definitely had a little recommend from Willie P, either to the club or the player.

I wasn't criticising the description, just the rules.

simpsons/simp019.gif We put this festival on you ba****ds
With whole lotta love
We worked for one year for you pigs
And you wanna break our walls down
And you wanna destroy
Well you go to hell:simpsons/simp019.gif |

| Unsure about this one, on the one hand he has the potential for us and has an undoubted amount of skill and flair - something we desperately need. If he is fit and interested he could change the game and potentially win them on his own in the same way Sol used to do (but maybe not as often!) - something that you can't put a value on, and he is also bloody entertaining.
On the other hand, he probably wont be cheap, he is injury prone and you could question his motivation - maybe better with a young one on his way up rather than an older one on his way down, but I suppose thats easier said than done.
Worrying for me though is the number of imports we could potentially go with next year if we dont ship another couple out, although you do need your imports to be special rather than workmanlike and this guy has qualities you rarely find in a UK based player.
Time will tell I suppose, but welcome aboard and lets hope the injury fairy is kind to him and the ginge.

I know, but the rules as described are clear, the 'interpretation' however is the bit that gets me - the Stosic/Mason sagas - when a clearly foreign player can use the rules to become exempt but a player born in England and brought up in Aus is foreign
Anyway back to the thread - Welcome Ali

I totally agree - the Mason debacle has shown that anyone with a small amount of nouse and sufficient brass neck can blatantly flout the rules, whilst remaining within the letter of them.

| Perhaps Ali could play some of the first half for Leeds and some of the second half for Wakefield in our traditional boxing day encounter. Great way to say goodbye to a Rhinos legend and hello to a new player for Wildcats.

Officially yes, he learned his rugby in Aus, therefore is Non Fed trained, whether he got dispensation for time served I am not sure. His brother went through appeal when removed from Cas as part of the reasoning was he took a quota place IIRC

Accepting he could play 2 halves...
He would get away with everything in the 1st and be pulled for everything in the 2nd - not paranoid at all
