firstly, if you were going to spend millions buying an English rugby league club, it would need to be successful , therefore you're unlikely going to pilfer their players. as a publicly traded company on the ASX there are certain legal obligations that we have (that a private company doesn't have to worry about).
Secondly, even in the event we decided to waste money on a club to possible help recruit English players (there are cheaper ways to do this), we're not going to choose a club that just finished with the wooden spoon in the second level comp and have just relegated down to the third level comp.
and lastly, if there was a player that we actually wanted we could simply negotiate a transfer fee with their club. doesn't seem like that is included in the salary cap.
