Yes, but it wouldn't fit the narrative.

Good point. That makes sense now.
Maybe also don’t want to have to pay another player on the salary cap. Burger sales may be down this month.

| Absolutely laughable really that they're claiming they can't name 17 players.
Academy season is finished for them and they've cancelled the reserves game for them this week so how can they not find 1 fit player? Not like they're even playing Melbourne, they're playing another massively understrength team who will also have academy players out there.
All just so that if they lose they have ready made excuses for their fans, and if they win they can big it up as one of Rovers greatest ever wins.

| They must have 50 players, first team, reserves and academy, you aren't telling they have 34 injured players and they couldn't name a few in the squad and put one of the bench.
Top dogs as Bob says. ![Rolling Eyes icon_rolleyes.gif](images/smilies//icon_rolleyes.gif)

| They could even name a player with a knock just to sit on the bench for 80 minutes. That would be more respectable and less embarrassing than claiming they can't name 17 players.
Even just an academy player to make a 5 minute cameo at the end.
It's a complete embarrassment in my opinion.

Rovers have come out and explained the situation. We've 29 players unavailable across the club. You mention academy players able to step up..... That's what they've been doing the past 6 weeks. Look at the squad. Who do you think Fishwick, Barley, Dawson are, They're 17 year old academy players.
The academy side that played yourselves on Saturday and drew was pretty much made up of first year academy players aged 16. Of those that are fit, If they were ready to face men then the club would throw them in.
Registrations are closed otherwise they'd bring players in. Even Mcguire stated if they could both him and Delaney would don a shirt.
What doesn't fit the narrative for you all on here is that Hull KR actually have an injury crisis and only have 16 players.

Just because he says it doesn't mean it's true, I think hevis dong it to prove a point to the RFL, with regard suspensions and double weekends. Also alot of academy players got a huge bonus they make their debut (hookem got 15k for Hull for debutong) so it may be a cost thing.
Also read they have 4/5 players out of loan.

Name an academy player, put them on the bench and just don't play them then. At least you would be lining up with 17 players.
It's laughable that a full time professional club is claiming they can't find 17 players in the entirety of their club.
And simply saying "we have 29 players unavailable" doesn't explain the situation at all.
How many are first team? How many reserves? How many are academy? How many players are actually fit to play (whether they're 16 or not)? Why have you not recalled loan players when you have the world's worst injury crisis all year?
Absolute cop out by the club.

Three?? You're only picking THREE academy kids whilst in our injury crisis we've seleced SEVEN to make up the numbers? This is clearly about forcing a narrative and nothing at all to do with the protection of younger players.

| Dobbins fans will believe anything their club says. The whole thing sums up how that club operates. How many debuts have they handed out this season compared to us?
I can hear the worlds smallest violin playing when I hear them moaning.
Hope we just focus and do what needs to be done .
