Shame someone has to win. Either Warrington who have simply bought in a side and don't produce any young players or Wigan, who despite developing many younger players, are still the most hated side in the league.

What do you call bought in a side? Likes of Briers have been there years now, and Carvel. Even Morley has done a few years now.

What about the likes of Riley, Bridge, Grix, Harrison, Wood, and Cooper? I would question your statement that they have "bought in a side".

Bridge?

Yeah Bridge, that they took as a youngster from the Bradford Academy and developed.

Leeds have never bought any players, I mean Kylie that's a typical Leeds council estate name did he play for Queens?

Watkins played for Latchford, forgive me if I'm wrong but that's a Warrington club.
Briscoe your latest academy product?
The legendary Jamie Peacock.... the ex Bradford player
Hardaker is another Leeds academy player too, that's if Featherstone is a Leeds junior side?

So you stopped being silly now?

Harrison, Riley, Cooper, Wood, Briers been here since a teenager,
Also we've had Glenn Riley, Currie, Rhys Evans and Williams, Tyrone Mccarthy, Grix, O'Brien, Dwyer, Laithwaite and Saltonstall.

Grix - Halifax, Briers - St Helens,Bridge - Bradford, that leaves 4
rest you mention will be nowhere near the 17 on Saturday

It's how you want to interpret it though, all came in young, where's the cut off point for youth development, and they're all closer to the final than McGuire and Sinfield and Burrow.

Plus Leeds is a city, Wigan have 10 times the amatuer teams that Warrington have, you tell me how we compete with Leeds population 751, 485 compared to Warrington 202, 228.?

Good debate this.

That's fair comment ,although JP is a Leeds man who comes from the same area as JJB as does the legendary Ryan Bailey.

Why are you quoting Leeds in this regard?
The original comment & comparison was with your opponents on Saturday or are you too thick to understand the basis of the comments & the debate?

I'm not too thick at all, we have people who slag off the club for circumstances way beyond it's controll, we are told we don't bring enough through yet we have a very small talent pool, if anything I think Wire do well all considering, out academy sides punch way above their weight comparing geographical statistics.

Besides if a Leeds fan is comparing us to Wigan that it is entirely fair to quote the Leeds system for comparison.

I like Leeds, I love their systems of working but you have more natural resources so you are able to make the most of them, we don't have the resources but or import budget is vastly higher than yours so we utilise that resource.
Play to your strengths rather than move the goalposts because you're stronger in a particular area, if Wire had more amateur clubs or 3 and a quarter the times population and sure we could do it the Wigan and Leeds way.
