The future depends on what we do in the present.:cartoons/WB129.gif



Winger Jamel Chisholm and forward Daniel Smith will be released
Hetherington said prop Kyle Amor, who has spent two years at Wakefield Trinity Wildcats, still has an option to return to Leeds if he wants.
but Hull are keen to sign Amor on a three-year contract, but Hetherington denied that is a done deal.
he go gone to say “There are decisions to be made [on Lunt and McShane] at the end of the season,” Hetherington said.
“Shaun still has three years on his contract at Huddersfield and Paul has gained good experience at Widnes.”

We are losing Brent Webb and looking to replace him with a top-class player, not a full-back because in Zak Hardaker we have got someone who has shown real ability in that position.

“The player has to be good enough to get straight into the 17 and make a difference, otherwise what’s the point?

“We don’t need any more strength in depth, it is quality we are looking for. That’s not easy, but it is the challenge.”

Read the article carefully and it doesn't actually say that Chisholm has been released. That might be Peter Smith being unclear, but it's a chink of hope for Nantwich.

Nowhere for them at Leeds from next season under the new structure. Best they have time to find a club for next year.

The current 18s side will make up the 19s next year, most of the current 20s are on the way out.

A victory for the badly run clubs who bleated about having to run a reserve side.

Not seen alot of this to be honest and I am not involved in junior rugby, however to me the new structure seems bizzare to me. I thought with the current exchange rate, Bigger NRL cap, continued falling standard of SL and quota players. Falling further and further behind in international rugby.

I thought we would be paying more attention to junior development and getting rid of one of the teams junior clubs doesn't seem to assist

Many SL sides reckon they can't afford to run a reserve side - which is what the 20s effectively were - and wanted to cut costs by combining the two grades. There will be no overage players allowed in the 19s next year.

I think the new junior structure stinks and an U20/reserve team should be a standard requirement for all SL clubs.

Isn't this guy supposed to be as quick as the London lad? If so may be worth giving him a go pre season to see how he fairs.

I think the new structure is great. So long as the clubs go back to what they were doing a few years back, and promoting players at an early age. There has been two much reliance on holding players back to go through systems and introducing too late. Leeds been one of the major issues with that. Leeds success came from promoting young.

There is not many players who have gone on to be stars who did not make their debuts until after 21. The best players started at 16-18, and that's the way it should be.

The problem for us at Leeds with this new concept, is that we have a coach who has no balls whatsoever, and will continually overlook potential stars, to maintain a same 20 players each week. Hopefully something will change there, otherwise the new structure could see a lot of ready starts, snapped up by others once they reach the age limit.

Northampton RL....details here: //www.northamptonrl.co.uk:193.jpg



The problem typically raised was that U20s was too low a standard compared to SL, and wasn't preparing players.
Teams were left with the choice of either keeping players in the U20s to try to raise that standard, or loaning them out to Championship clubs, which gets that player a higher standard of competition, but further weakens the U20s competition. It seems the decision has been made that effectively U20s will all be loaned to Championship clubs.

Yep, young players need to be playing open age, or certainly against a higher proportion of open age players than was in the u20's comp or the jump to SL is too big. The only way of making that happen is to either loan them out to Championship clubs (but they could only have 4 max) or to have an old style 2nd team which I doubt any club could afford to run.

I'm quietly hopeful this new system will pay dividends in the long run, it will all depend on the relationship between the SL and the Championship club though.
