I mentioned that earlier. Wouldn’t surprise if they don’t want to pay out for someone else.

And there was me thinking Craven “Streat” was going to catapult them into the upper echelons of world rugby.

After 31st July any player on loan at Championship and League 1 clubs can't be recalled. The date for players on loan at SL clubs is the 24th July.

Rovers recalled Rusling from his loan expecting him to play on Monday to be then told by the RFL that he isn't eligible to actually play due to the loan cut off rules.

As for debuts I think we are at seven. You also say about us moaning but it's not actually Rovers fans doing the moaning here. Hull fans seem more bothered that we can't field a full 17 then we are.

Definitely a money thing, despite being skint, we have paid players off, brought in loam players and given debuts to to a host of young players.

That's because you're on a Hull FC forum....

Got to laugh at the excuse of International call ups

One young player called up to play for Ireland U19’s and suddenly they are unable to name a team

Wasn't the loan rule changed this year, so you could call back a player after that date? https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.examin ... 554543.amp

Would appear that the rules changed then.

Looks like rovers are trying to make a point but going the wrong way about it/ looking for a sympathy vote. I get not being able to name a squad for a reserves game but it's absolutely embarrassing for them to only name 16 players in their match day squad, they've got players recalled from loans and surley a few academy players to fill in.

So why is McGuire making such a big song and dance about only naming 16 players?

Hoping the RFL would do them a big favour and let Litten and Sims play

Better hope you are signing more than the 11 players you are releasing otherwise you could have this problem next season

Don't really know what they're whinging about.

Injuries to the spine aside, its a decent team. Pretty much first choice pack. Ryan and Hall have been first picks on the wing all season. Wood and Minchella have played when fit.

Absolutely. The usual fabricated nonsense from them ready for a timely boost on Saturday. Didn't we beat them with 16 players when Faraimo got redcarded a couple of years ago?

The whole club is built on this mindset. Hard done by and up against it.

The fans buy into it (critical thinking is not in their DNA when it comes to Rovers), and now it looks like DM has fell into the same way of thinking.

Me neither. The core of that squad was within one game of the GF last season.

They still have plenty of experience available and also have the luxury of fielding 6 full internationals.

That must make them favourites given how decimated we are.
