We can’t talk shit on the forum now because “[a foreign] player [might] come check out the web site and find a discussion about how they’re not wanted and how local players should get preference, and how they’ll have to be way better than a local to get into the team. Why would some really good player come from Canada to play with the team, when their first impression is that they’re not really wanted?”

I actually don’t know whether to laugh or cry. Or go on a murderous rampage with a chainsaw, but let’s be honest, that’s always somewhere on my “to do” list.
On topic, personally I like what Aaron is saying. In the extreme, it would become a little useless if every member of every team came from overseas, because then it wouldn’t be a New Zealand competition at all, just one held in NZ, which is totally different. So the point of a cap is pretty valid from that perspective, and if you’re going limit foreign players, they’d better be good to raise the standard of hockey.
On a more wishful note, wouldn’t it be awesome to see a team of 90% Dunedin players playing in the superleague?

[/quote:2jhcr9n9]Given that a bunch of us spent time earlier this year cursing the Southern Stampede coach for, what looked like favouring ‘local’ (Queenstown) players over ‘not local’ (not Queenstown) players, I really hope not.
If it was up to me (and it clearly won’t be), the conditions for being part of the squad and out on the ice would be 1. turning up when required and training hard, 2. being a good player and showing that out on the ice, and 3. fitting in to the squad and being a good team member. Other than that, what does it matter where a player goes to at the end of practice – Dunedin, Gore, Christchurch etc?
[/quote:2jhcr9n9]As I understand it, that’s the point of it being a regional competition. Either you take the view that the regions are simply for dividing players up conveniently then I;m sure you’re right Kyle, but personally I think it’s a little more than that. It’s as much to do with local pride and striving to beat teams from other regions as it is about having a hockey tournament.

[/quote:1krir111]I’m sure you would get the opportunity to trial man. From what I’ve heard you’re pretty mean between the pipes, and the Dunedin team would be lucky to have you on board.
