Post subject:  More Dual Reg Nonsense - Oldham

Oldham had a run out against Leigh yesterday in one of their pre-season friendlies. Or was it Oldham? The team bearing that name had FIVE players who actually play for Huddersfield Giants (according to League Express) - Michael Lawrence, Scott Grix, Kyle Wood, Oliver Roberts and Nathan Mason.
.
Michael Lawrence and Scott Grix! I hope this was just a bit of pre-season nonsense, cos if an Oldham team turned up to play us at Lawkholme and went back to Lancashire with the points in the bag having fielded a shed-load of Huddersfield players I would feel more than slightly aggrieved.
.
And if you were an Oldham fan why would you want to watch that? It's hardly your own team. This situation is a complete farce.

Have the RFL actually confirmed which players are permitted to play under the farcical Dual Registration Rules?

I don't know, although I think as a general rule of thumb Batley are allowed to play whoever they want.

I see the Dulls are now DR with Coventry, so when we play Coventry we will after all be sort of playing the Dulls this year. Unless it's the Coventry Bears who will be sending their players to Bradford.......

Surely Hull D and Rochdale M will be let off for playing ineligible players in the Challenge Cup!? Loads of clubs got let off last year and the year before for fielding ineligible players. Who is the clown that runs the internal workings at the RFL?

Five is the maximum you can play in one game at this level.

Dual reg's are as follows:
Coventry Bears - Bradford Bulls
Hemel Stags - Hunslet Hawks
Newcastle Thunder - Hull Kingston Rovers
North Wales Crusaders - Warrington Wolves
Oldham Roughyeds - Huddersfield Giants
York City Knights - Castleford Tigers

I also understand that the All Golds are dual regging with the Leeds Rhinos, Skolars with Broncos and Rochdale with St Helens but these are all TBC.

A new rule has been brought in which allows League One clubs to dual reg with amateur clubs within a certain radius.

It will be interesting to see how the RFL deals with this. How can they possibly administer any punishment after last season's fiasco? Although perhaps they will dish out the usual punishment and ensure that our club is relegated again.

Five? For a league game? I thought it might have been just some pre-season friendly type nonsense with Oldham at Leigh. Any team which includes five 'offcumdens' in their 17 is no longer the team it claims to be. This is a farce. A mockery. A joke. I'm totally fed up with it.

Both Hull & Mayfield excluded from the Challenge Cup as a result of playing ineligible players!

Can we appeal against relegation?

It's just unreal isn't it? Both those clubs should appeal immediately citing Batley & Doncaster. How can the RFL possibly turn them down?
