He doesn't understand loans unless Wonga explain it to him properly, using small words in big print.

this would maybe leave it open for other clubs to come In for him after seeing how he gets on with us.

The Bosman rule has nothing to do with it if it did then why did the 'My dead gran was Scottish so you cant stop me playing' come to an end with the non fed rule. I would imagine it is more the case that there are so few European players that it is unwise to limit their playing chances.
Put if this way if the Bosman rule is such a worry then why are we ignoring the Kolpack rule which has just as much legal weight behind it?

What actually counts as the 'Federation' from which a player has to be trained? If it is the Super league and or lower leagues, and Laroyer has played his junior rugby in Catalans system, them being a member of our competition, as a super league club, must surely count him as fed trained. If not where do you draw the line? Yorkshire players only count for Yorkshire clubs etc?

Fed trained means trained in our federation which is RLEF (Rugby League European Federation). RLEF is SL and any leagues below.

I have already answered that it any club under the RLEF umbrella.

I dont know the minutia of these 'trade/legal agreements but the EU rules relating to French players mirrors the Bosman rule which he used to challenge the cap of EU players and contract rules. Hence in football they still have a cap on non EU players but can't have on EU players. The football clubs and their lawyers have been very creative getting around it ending with the farcical situation in Italy of Veron and Crespo etc getting Italian passports because a distant old relative had once sailed passed Italy.
Wenger is part owner in a football acadamy in Ivory Coast. The players who are any good, Toures, Drogba, Eboue etc then get moved to a club in Belgium. There you can get a Belgian passport and EU visa much easier. Once they have these they can be sold to any of the big EU based teams avoiding the quota issue. At one stage I think it was Mechelan had a whole team of young players from Ivory Coast.
We tried these tricks with Ben Galea and his Maltese passport ending with the Mason fiasco. The EU is trying to close all these loopholes the Maltese passport route being one of them as previously I beleive it was very easy to qualify for a Maltese passport
The Kolpac treaty is far less vigorous or covers other aspects of trade employment law that the far reaching EU treaty does hence the constant blurring of boundries for these quotas. Plus these countries don't have the finacial clout to get a treaty with a decent outcome for their citizens compared to the EU countries.
If superleague tried to limit the number of French players in English clubs they wouldn't have a leg to stand on in court. They get round it by using the european and australian federations as references for quotas.
Sorry for any confusion. I used the Bosman case as it was the most publisised. It is an example of many court cases of employment/contract issues re EU nationals.

Sorry but this is the key point you are missing IMHO. ANY EU citizen is included in the rule you mention.
It doesn't start or stop at the place of birth. That was why I mentioned 'My dead granny was Scottish so you can't stop me' as my example. If it went to court they wouldn't have a leg to stand on in regard to those players either.

Non fed means exactly that and I'm pretty sure that previously it meant that the FFR were counted as a separate federation to the RFL. I assume common sense has prevailed as there are so few quality European players that restricting them was self defeating.

[iA 'Federation Trained Player' is one who has been on the register of one or more member clubs in Great Britain or France for three full seasons before the end of the season in which he ceases to be eligible to play U21's.[/i

Indeed but I'm pretty sure that is a change and that the FFR and RFL were classed as separate federations previously.

Sorry must have missed that, been back and read it now, it's very informative.........did mild Rover write it for you?

Question was what happened to Kevin anyone know the answer instead of jabbering on about the laws of the federation Etc have we signed him or not seems to have gone quiet

Seeing as no one has answered the question I assume nobody does know.

I share your frustration over the constant derailments and cross-city bickering.

The internet sources (ignoring Wiki) suggest its a done deal but I am afraid the only answer to your Q is that it is a rumour and somewhere between a one year loan deal or a three year permanent deal.

The only thing I know is that Rovers are in the market for a prop (Poore?) and a 2nd row.
