Quote ="JEAN CAPDOUZE"hull KR has had an interesting recent history that belies its parochial geographical location. The club has a strong tradition of support for players from Papua-New Guinea, with the mercurial Stanley Gene being one of its most popular players. The club was also renowned for having once had on its rosters the greatest ever indigenous Australian rugby league player, Arthur Beetson. Today it has evolved into an even more pluralistic and cosmopolitan club, with a player roster that encompasses many countries, cultures and races.
Consider some of its 2015 roster:
Indigenous Australians: Albert Kelly, Maurice Blair
Papua-New Guinean: Neville Costigan
French: Kevin Larroyer
Italian-Australian: Joshua Mantellato
Asian-Australian: Kenneth Sio
Hull KR is now the most ethnically diverse club in Super League.'"
Just think how many we'll have come 2017
