| Bet you wish you didn't have a homgrown coach tho.
On a serious note, I'm not sure how the exiles game will affect the players doubling up. Providing non of them go down injured they may come back more motivated.
Think Leeds will nick this one purely due to the fact that I can;t see us doing the double on you two years running. Our defence is still shakey and unless we can play an 80 minute game (which we are yet to do) Home advantage will tip the balance.

Where a player was born has sod all to do with your youth system if you've picked them up from somewhere else. It's the ultimate in red herrings.
It's like Leeds signing Michael McIlorum for next season and taking credit for his development.
You mean those players we've paid transfer fees for, rather than scouring out of contract players in other SL reserve sides? I'm sure Featherstone and Wakefield were quite happy to see some money trickling down to reward their development efforts.
Face facts, your record on youth development is shocking however you try to excuse/disguise it with irrelevant arguments about birth certificates.

Don't agree, for the (relatively) short time we have been in SL we have made massive strides with our youth teams. Do you watch any u20 or U18 games?

| I guess Cross must have shagged BMD's wife, because even when we have two props potentially backing up with 2 games in 3 days, and another who hasn't played for weeks, he can't even make the gameday squad...
Also still no Clarkson????
Hauraki and McShane to drop out for me.
Senior is now the only 1-17 not in the squad, so no excuses with injuries either this week.

| Loving that this thread has managed to turn into a slanging match over youth development. Not.
In fairness to HKR, while several posters have acknowledged that they need to (and have begun to) up their game in the youth set-up, they have given some young British lads a chance at times in their career when they struggled to get first team RL at other clubs (Murrell, Fox and Netherton spring to mind immediately) and turned them into very solid SL players and even international contenders. A few less Aussies in the pack would be nice, but if you're behind the pace on that front you can't catch up over night.
To be honest, if you look at where Rovers were 10-12 yars ago, at a time when their cross-town neighbours were getting all sorts of leg-ups, I think they've done a pretty good job so far.

Burgess and Hauraki for me with how he has been picking the team.

| So Mr. McDermott has been regularly complaining about not having the opportunity to rest Sinfield, and publicly declared that he's worried about a man who's played every single minute of every single game this season, and stated (quite rightly) that he's unlikely to produce his best work if he's in desperate need of a rest, and that he's risking more serious/longer term injury if playing with fatigue...
and this same man then picks him to play 2 games in 3 days, when McGuire & Burrow (Replacement Playmakers) aren't playing for England, and Clarkson (Replacement Loose) is left out entirely?

It's daft.
I'm not Cross' biggest fan at all, but he should be in this squad. For the reasons you have mentioned. if Cross could direct his aggression the right way, he could do a job.
A reprive for Biff, he should feel soooo lucky!
