Quote: tigertot "I'm not sure it is lack of interest in RL that is the problem in Bramley. It is probably more that kids now naturally are drawn to more successful clubs, there is a general reduction in kids playing competitive sport & there are plenty of alternative RL clubs in the immediate vicinity.'"
I suppose that's been a long term problem for such as Bramley, and I guess Hunslet too. Neither are going to outscore the Rhinos in popularity and maybe local clubs in general are going to lose out to big city rivals for fans at games, but there's no logical reason why both can't find their own local niche, even if it means being feeder clubs for the Headingley outfit. That said I'm not sure the new rules regarding junior sides at SL clubs does teams like Bramley any favours.
