| Quote downtheante="downtheante"So now that we've all read both of those extracts - bearing in mind it might be possible that there are recent appendices that we haven't seen; plus we don't know what player negotiations are going on - does anyone believe that Rule could have answered the email in a way that we could all agree was FACT?'"
Based on what I've read, the only way he could know it as fact is if either
a) we have already applied for, and been granted, special dispensation for one of our "quota" players.
or
b) one of the current "quota" (2 if you include Motu) players are leaving.

| Quote Robbo4="Robbo4"Well my interpretation of that is that a player must have been at a SL club for 3 seasons before he reaches the age of 21 (I thinks thats the age a player is no longer qualified for the reserves?) in order to be classed as fed trained or club trained. Anything other than that could only be classed as special dispensation from the RFL? So even if Manu or Motu for that matter want to be classed as fed/club trained they would need to apply to the RFL without any gurantee they would agree. Anyone else read that differently?'"
That's the 'Gene Exemption'. This isn't part of the Op Rules so doesn't feature in the above documents. And acceptance is guaranteed, provided you meet the requirements.

I suppose strictly speaking their 'quota' isn't full but from the outside looking in it seems there are no more places left for 'non-federation' players.
Could be a clever play on words from Mr Rule.

| Quote Robbo4="Robbo4"Which are?
'"
Email from the RFL (courtesy of gazcoops):
Quote Robbo4Non-Federation Trained players who where in the British game before February 2008 may apply to be re-classified as Federation Trained in their final year of their current contract.
Initially this was to allow the player to continue his employment at his present club, this has subsequently been amended and the dispensation is directly awarded to player regardless of him joining a new club.
Although they may apply in their final year it does not come in to force until his contract expires in November of that year.

According to the wording on the RFL website I dont think it matters.
