Quote: Bull Mania "Agree with above. Chisholm, Roche, Bentley, Ryan are just too good to sign with us. For me its about getting a young squad we can build on, and gel with. We've had wholesale changes every season and every single one of those seasons we finished worse than the year before.
Sign players like Pickersgill, Butterworth, Kirk, Wilkinson, Ricketts. Bring a few of the promising U19s through throughout the season. They can develop and get away with making mistakes in L1.
Playing in L1 will be rubbish and i won't be going to places like Hemel. But for the last 10 seasons its felt like fire fighting instead of building anything. We get a load of promising academy prospects, then go into administration. Give the club stability and improve a little bit each season, bringing the conveyor belt of academy products through, and in a few years we will have earned the right to fight for a place back in SL.
BTW just to give some a lift, our U16s narrowly lost to Leeds U16s last night. Looking on the Rhinos board many think that crop is a special bunch. Looking at Leeds's results (82-0 V newcastle, 52-0 & 60-0 against Huddersfield x2,and 42-28 V London) it shows how good a crop we have of our own, i believe we signed most, if not all the ones we wanted. Uf we get a stable club and allow these players to devop and come through instead of losing them because we're in admin, we'll be OK. I cam get behind a young HG team i can see a future with.'"
Did you go to the game? My mates lad made his debut last night interesting to hear how he got on
