9 overseas players at Rovers, have they released someone or do they have some exceptions (I know about Moss)?

AFAIK Dockar-Clay doesn't count because of his age

Come on David, I thought you were a fountain of knowledge all things Hull KR, you spout enough rhubarb on our forum to give that impression. I will help you out on this little dilemma that you seem to have.

Mitch Clark- Born in Pontefract
Zach Dockar-Clay- Grandad born in Hull, British passport.
Keiran Moss- Mum born in England
Andrew Heffernan- Maltese Passport
Jake Fleming- Australian Passport
Adam Quinlan- Australian passport
Bobby Blair- Australian passport
Justin Carney- Australian passport
Mose Masoe- Samoan passport- (KOLPAK agreement)

So that makes 4 players with an "oversees" quota place, the rest is complicated but still stands regards employment.

To be fair, the fact Heffernans granddad was born in Malta, but moved to Aussie as a youth really does make a mockery of the fact we can dodge a bullet regarding quota eligibility.

Grix is doing just fine thanks.

As im sure McGuire will do at Hull Kr. I was responding to a well known wakefield troll who claimed that McGuire lacks dignity for not retiring and instead, signing for Hull Kr.

I've explained all this to you before Ronnie. Passports and where you're born don't matter anymore, it's whether they're classed as Federation (RLEF) or Non-Federation trained. You're allowed 7 of the latter. Of course, the RFL can also grant special dispensation.

Fair play to Rob Burrow in not dragging out his playing career like an old sick dog.

I've also tried, but it's pointless as he isn't bright enough to understand the non fed rule, so they must have got special dispensation for one of their current non fed players so they can have 9 overseas players, I suppose it shows how desperate they are to get back into SL.

As you know Moss has dispensation due to the Bradford debacle so that leaves us with 8. I'm not sure how we've managed to get that many but to get Masoe to help our push means I couldn't give a rats ass tbh.

I think the overseas players signed from Bradford during our most recent period of admin/liquidation were granted exemptions from all quotas, basically to help them find employment at another club easier.
Kieren Moss will definitely fall under this bracket, and maybe Mitch Clark too (although technically they had signed Clark before the sh*t hit the fan and the exemptions were granted).
