Well that was why I was initially reluctant, as they've got that and the piespace thread, the rumours thread takes a while to come up off the server, more pages on one thread etc, greater strain.

I think the Leeds equivalent is even longer.

Can understand your reluctance. It's a catch all thread but first thing you look at. I suppose you could change it at end of year or start of season. I have seen a few that are years old.

This was simplified a couple of years ago, its simply 7 non fed players allowed, whether they come from Aus, NZ, Fiji, PNG etc etc.

Are you sure? Mikaele had to apply to get a samoan passport to fit him in, although to be fair that was a few years ago ha ha

Well Mikaele won’t be back unless we offload Kasiano or anyone of the other quota spots. I had heard the story also of deal to include bringing his wife’s mother over

I do like Kasiano though and if he's part of a fit firing squad he causes carnage for opposition, so we'll see what happens

Hate to say it I agree also, would prefer Mikaele but if we can’t fit him in then we have to hope under Burgess thinks progress a lot better. So recruitment is not over yet with the announcement of Powell still to be done which ofc opens up the debate and rumour on Dwyer going to Salford and Partington coming this way.

Thing is Partington is happy to stay at Salford as we already found out. So I guess it wouldn’t be a straight swap I’d say we would be putting money in. In a nutshell i don’t think we are done yet but like you said let’s get on with it if it is and save judgement till season is underway, just get behind them now and see how it turns out.

BTW some keep mentioning Matt King coming and ofc Kevin Sinfield none of the guys on here not saying much about this it’s popping up on other sites, maybe we still got xmas presents to come

Sam Powell will be announced later today/tonight.
