We certainly don't need to worry about the amount of local/British players that we have. We have more than most clubs have and a lot of them are actually pretty average. I couldn't give a to$$ where they come from when they are top drawer signings. |

Very true. I think the club have focused too much on filling the team with Hull lads to the detriment of the squad |

dowes - plodder
king - pudding
carvell - splitter albeit a class act on his day
thackery - pi$$ head
luaki - like for like with carvell?
cucask - like for like with dowes, but better
moa - all in all a better prospect than king
shrek - international prop'"
Add to that, that dowes is still here, I certainly feel in terms of quality, next years pack is better than the 2005 one. You also have to consider that there isn't a vast amount of British talent around at prop at the moment, so I think we've done aswell as we can to give size, power and mobility to the pack. |

Correct.
We meet the quota so I don't see what the issue is. Besides we have more locals lads than most clubs. |

But this has been done partly to meet declared RFL targets on homegrown players and reducing overseas quotas. Had we been aware the RFL would allow a massive fudge on these rules, we probably would have invested resources differently and would have had a different squad composition to the one we have. No doubt that in relative terms continually allowing new dispensations and ways of coming off quota has disadvantaged us as we've put a lot of effort into developing our own talent. |

I always used to use that point as a point of pride. however, too many locals in the side i think does lead to too many off field issues. A healthy balance is what is required. |

I don't think there's been a time in the last few years when we've had more local lads in the side then Leeds have had in theirs, yet Leeds have consistently been the best, or second best team in the competition. |

Are you for real? the Warriors got shut of him and he couldn't make the NZ squad for last years World Cup which is why he played for Tonga. Talk about being deluded... |
