| Whatever the reasons given it's another blow to the club and represents a shrinking of the game as a whole.
I'm sure Huddersfield and Leeds will be more than happy to get their hands on players on our patch. I'm sure being formerly of the Hudders club Rimmer had no say in the matter.
With fewer opportunities to play for an academy what will become of players like James Bentley who wasn't rated or wanted by SL clubs in 2017 yet came through our system.
Looking at the bigger picture I can see why Newcastle and London should have academies but I don't see it why it is seemingly at our expense.
Watch the NRL and you see you players like Sam Walker and Reece Walsh coming through and compare with the situation over here. We'll be a second tier nation within 4 years with the Aussies, Kiwis and Pacific Nations being the real powerhouses.
What now for BullBuilder?

| Sounds like typical RFL logic doesnt it. We don't think your spending enough on your academy so you've got two years to spend more but we're removing the central funding during that period.
wonder if the withheld funding will be shared out amongst other academies or just go into RFLs coffers.

| It's actually just a sneaky way of doing it, just like the perfect 'Yes, Prime Minister' script book.
It's rather like the episode about the ring road, where the council want to build a ring road but it would mean knocking down the memorial garden in the town centre, which would cause a serious rumpus. So instead, they actually publish a plan which includes knocking down the hospital adjacent to the memorial garden. This creates such an outcry that when the solution is 'found' that they only need to knock down the garden , everyone jumps up and cheers.
If we just assume that the RFL really only wanted to save money on the academy set up, it 's a perfect fit.
