I've just been thinking about it. Leigh last year wouldn't take any Wigan players over the age of 23, but that may have been just their choice.
Briers did play for Swinton so maybe there is no age restriction.

There seems to be numerous different strategies at play with this whole duel registration business. I think it must come down to individual agreements. For example having read about hulls duel registration with Doncaster, they have to make 5 players (only) available, but for the entire season they have to be available to Doncaster ... Leigh as you say had their own rules about who they took, and Whitehaven don't seem fussy at all! It's a strange business this whole duel registration - I'm glad reserves are returning, in some capacity at least.

Any way it seems a good bit of business letting young Forster go on loan, he seems to be behind walker Richards greenwood Etc so the more experience the better. Hopefully he'll kick on and put in a good show! Is he out of contract this year?

No age restriction with Dual-reg. In the case of Leigh that was a club policy not to take anyone over the age of 23 rather than a RFL policy.

Noticeable absence of clough though. Is he injured? Refused to go? In talks to go elsewhere? Seems strange to see Flanaghan out playing but not clough too.

I'd suggest Flanagan has gone to Rochdale for game time at not an intense level. He got a bad injury last year that saw him sat out the season and the coaching staff may be looking to give him a couple of 'confidence boosters' before putting him back into Super League action.
