now see. unlike others (at a guess a very passionate and verging on irrational feverish) i had read these regs/rules when i posted about a CL side being able to use any of its club players if managed up and down effectively. TT can only call from a 'limited' pool of 24 players. They can't just go and call on any players from the Taranaki clubs (you're fudging stupid if feeling threatened by a local player base from a local league). So your argument that TT can just use anyone is well flawed. NCR have a very capable reserve side that plays in the Pacific (east) premiership, won it convincingly and also won the Central Football Federation Cup with a 7-1 win over Red Sox (who happened to play in the Federation League with TT).
