As Halfdan said on another thread, work permits might be an issue so perhaps we need to look at those Aussies who have or could obtain British Passports. May be a job for Tony Rea there!!
I know from football it is easier to get a work permit for non EU players than EU so maybe the rules have changed. But of course a nice new blue British Passport should make this redundant.
This may be the latest agreed RFL/Govt qualification process which might make part time difficult for Aussi Aussies.

No doubt doddery dave and his animal menagerie are better informed than we are, but given the lack of anything approaching information or customer service emanating from the club, I suspect they're resigned to 2022 being "ground zero"
I'd add that if we are part time next year, playing in (and paying for) any stadia bigger than 1,500 capacity is an absolute act of insanity
