Ridiculous, and open to abuse if the procedures and rules for it are not tight enough or policed well enough by the RFL......





Lets say Hull FC duel reg 4 SL quality players who "need gametime" with Donny mid season (for eg) Donny then get into the middle 8 as a result, Hull FC fall into the middle 8 and withdraw their players - giving an advantage to Hull and stuffing Donny at short notice, and the team that missed out on the middle 8 to Donny might not be too impressed either. I can see these rules being a farce.



It was a bad enough idea when the leagues were seperate, now the leagues join up in the playoffs its a terrible idea IMHO.

Will they be holding a course on it? If they started one in the next couple of weeks then by January someone might understand it, provided they do ever finalise the actual details.



Dual reg "in some form" for example, my arris.

and we still dont even know if we're playing for 2 or 3 points in a match...finalized? dont make me laugh.
