Hull KR have had very few players in recent years, who speak with an English accent. It's legendary, has it helped them...NO, even when there was no relegation from SL, they should have been 'building for the future' with local youngsters, it's not like they were buying overseas players to win silverware , and to think folk used to ridicule London Broncos' ! What a pathetic club Dull KR are.

That comment was vicious and uncalled for.
What Hull KR is doing, and its coach Christopher Chester in particular is doing, is making carefully targeted purchases from abroad in key positions -- hence the cultural diversity -- while leaving other positions for local talent. It could turn out to be a brilliant strategy. The strength of Albert Kelly's legs will determine whether or not Chester and Hull KR have hit the jackpot.
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

I agree you 100%. P & R has never benefited British Rugby League.
