of overseas players that is.
After letting Robbie Paul go 'because of salary cap restrictions' I see today they have signed Watene from Cas so they are back to 11 yes eleven, count 'em,overseas players.
I see that in todays Daily Telegraph they say that Watene does not count on their overseas players because he is from the Cook Islands, are these off the coast of Scotland like the Hebridies?
No I can see the plan now, Superleague 11 therefore its 11 overseas players this year, we will have to wait 2 more years before they get the full set!

As Ian says it is a case of spot the Brit. I've made it easy for you as they are hard to spot.

1. Withers
2. Vainikolo
3. Hape
4. Ben Harris
5. Bai

6. Iestyn Harris
7. Deacon

8. Vagana
9. Henderson
10. Watene
11. Mckenna
12. Meyers
13. Gene

Some GB coach we have here, he cant even keep the GB players he has let alone bring any through his youth system.

Don't forget Newton.

Well all i can say is this is great. As these players will grow old together and the team will fall apart with no youth. :) Let the countdown begin of the demise of Bulls.

I was just making a point, we all know Newton will start but I was just empasisng what Ian had already said and did a starting 13 containing all their overseas players.

Nobel will have to until April. So that 13 posted earlier might be pretty close to the truth.
