Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3459041, member: 9052"] It happens every year... the train and trial players and guys on the outskirts of the top 17 are usually first into training. Rep guys, older guys, etc. are brought in closer to Christmas. I think last year the full squad weren't all there until the week before everyone was given a break over Christmas... covid pushed the year deeper, but internationals are normally played end of year so those players dont come back straight away. The RLPA agreement requires players to be given a certain amount of time off every year... the NRL players typically play longer into the year than guys in Qcup or 17/18 year olds that were playing Colts, etc. so the first group first up in November are usually deeper into the top 30 Reyno came in early last year when he wasn't supposed to because he played in the GF. Herbie came back in January one year, because he was given permission to go to England and see his family. [/QUOTE]
