Quote: Haighy "But on the flip side, do you think the youth in this country don't take it as seriously once they get to a certain age because they think they could do the hard work only to be behind the pecking order of a past it Aussie?'"
Not really, 'cos that's too much of a generalisation.
If the clubs were responsible in their recruitment the problem wouldn't be that they're behind Aussies in the pecking order. The clubs get their heads together and make the rules collectively at the top level.
Sam Tompkins was pretty much down the pecking order at Wigan, he's doing OK.
