not if hes wigan born and a british passport holder. As he cannot be federation trained as he isnt federation played...would be my view.

Would it not depend on how long he played in League before the switch? If he had never played RL at a top level would count as federation trained as it would be his first RL club. If he had played RL for 3 years in SL before his 21st and before his switch I think he would be federation trained. but if his first RL was in Australia before the switch he would be non-federation trained. France also counts as federation trained for us I assume.

I'm not sure on the details but I'm sure DaveO can confirm.

Having watched the Aus v NZ match today, I have to say Lockyer was brilliant. I think if we sign him Amos and a top prop we will have silverware next season.
