Seriously what is the point? Go though all the trouble of setting up the dual reg only for Leigh to get their pick of the players and we get the untried kids? What a joke.

I wouldn’t panic too much yet, it is only a friendly after all. I think there’s an argument that we should be getting our own lads ready for the season and not using dual reg in friendlies unless these lads are likely to be staying with us a while.

Be interesting to see how they go

From a Doncaster fan welcome to the world of D-Reg with Hull.

Re: Duel reg : Fri Jan 17, 2020 9:52 pm  

We are likely to get loan players from Leeds and they are DR with Fev so it’s no different

Clearly this weekend Radford has got his first team squad and is giving them all an equal shot before week 1. He has picked a squad of 23 but can only pick 17 so potentially there are 6 first team squad players we may get a go at. Seems like the agreement is working as expected this weekend. We get some youngsters who get a game and we get a look at them and pad out our light squad to avoid having to pick our players 3 times in Jan before the season starts and avoid the tired effect JK said affected us early last year due to the number of friendlies we played with the YC

Leigh will be paying the wages, maybe Bradford couldn't afford to fo this, for DR I dont think you pay anything towards the players wages.

Of all the DR players Wynne is the stand out, has played a few games in SL and not looked out of place. Very quick and deceptively strong.

Not sure why you think he can he only use 17? It'll be a 'friendly' surely and he can use 30 if he really wants to.

I think he was meaning that he can only have 17 when the season starts - which means that 6 of those who he picked this weekend won't be needed.

Of course, once injuries start to bite, he will need some or all of those guys - so we still probably won't see them in a Bulls shirt very often, if at all

We can now watch another teams players at another teams ground.what's not to like?

So is today the day the forum goes into meltdown, again, if Ethan Ryan gets named in the Dewsbury squad along with Keyes? Neither named in HKRs 21 man squad
