Agree, it's a ridiculous rule. SL will be packed with even more average overseas players hindering the progress of young prospects. It'll suit the clubs who are unwilling to invest in their academy's and frightened to give youngster's an opportunity.

The quota is only enforceable by agreement with the clubs as it cuts across employment law so if most want to do it then it's hard for the RFL to push back but we could potentially see 10+ overseas players in a team/squad which is way too many. Even 7 is too many IMO. I know we're 11th and keep losing but we've only had 2 or 3 overseas players in games this year which has exposed younger players to more SL than we'd expect. Pros and cons with doing it but overall I think they'll be better for it

I was hoping for a reduction in overseas players over time,not an increase. But,.it's as mentioned above, it's probably a sign of how poor the talent pool is.
I think increasing will hinder the youth, which looking across the board is looking like more sides are going down the youth route.
Wigan and saints are obviously the standouts. Wire and FC are.making massive strides. Leeds have a few trickling back in as well as Catalan,.cas and Hudds. Could be the beginning of a.golden generation in this country if the pathways aren't blokes.

A lot of the other sides such as Salford who only survive on cast offs nobody wants (that isn't a dig at all ) KR, Wakey (if they're up again next season) throwing money about like it has no meaning (again not a dig) not going down the same route. Leigh I believe have been granted permission for academy set up now, so that'll take time and money to get up and running.

So not a good move for me, invest in our own academies, our own players and as I said look at reducing overseas to 5 in the next few years

quoting FC and wire in the same bracket

do me a favour

sorry you invested in a shed on hull uni thats massive strides towards the youth investment many apologies

if only you knew

yep and work starting on the new 3g with a stand as well

has acun put the tv on for you lot yet ?

They're finding it difficult at the minute, too many health and safety concerns the main one been when they move the trophy cabinet it will unleash a dust storm like no one has ever seen before.

really? where is the planning app? maybe you can link to it on the planning portal

Cator gone now, never known a season like it, unfortunately too many injuries and just not good enough in attack to be a SL LF.

Hopefully a couple of seasons in the lower league, wil help develop some kind of attacking game.

Too small, injury prone and frankly not good enough. Could never question his effort mind.
