RFL and Wakey signing

Quote: Uptoncat "And clubs like Leeds and Bradford monopolising the junior talent doesn't help things either. They sign a big bulk of talent nurture a few and dump the remainding lads who subsequently leave the game feeling bitter and disgruntled.'"

so you go find more from elsewhere, if you truly dont believe wakefield can compete with Leeds and Bradford on their terms, go find your own terms to compete on, this is a competition is it not?

Quote: Uptoncat "Perhaps a cap should be placed on the number of players a team can have on its scholarship scheme thus spreading the talent more evenly. Granted the bigger/better clubs will still get the best players but the ones who would have been disgarded may well get a chance at other clubs. '"

why do expect a hand out? it is silly to pretend every player with sufficient quality is picked up by Leeds or Bradford before Wakefield get a shot, Jason Golden came through at leeds despite the fact that he went to school a stones throw from Belle Vue, where Wakefield came actually came in and did a bit of training, yet he wasnt picked up by Wakefield

Ryan Hall was playing for Oulton Raiders at 18, prior to being picked up by Leeds, why didnt wakefield have him before this?

All players of Quality clearly arent picked up, and thats without even looking at other areas

surely limiting the amount of players who get quality RL coaching at SL clubs, will limit the amount of quality players who through at SL clubs

wakefield need to find a way to compete, or understand that this level is too high for them

Quote: Uptoncat "You've also got to remember different players develop at different speeds and some don't come to the fore til they're in their twenties one such example being Kirke at Leeds who was 25 before he made his first team debut.'"

why arent wakey picking enough of these players up either?

Quote: Uptoncat "As for this not being an anti Wakey, well its obvious Marsden and smokey clearly hold a massive grudge against our club. To be fair no one else has bothered apart from another midget Wes Hooligan which is a great name for a supporter of a so called family game. Maybe a name change and some growing up is needed hey Wes?'"

why is it a grudge against your club? you know nothing of me! i want the wakefield club to do well, i know a few of the players and staff, and i know they are talented and hardworking and good people, and i want nothing but the best for them, it doesnt get around the fact that the very top of WTW is a complete shambles

there is plenty of talent in the Wakefield area, nobody is to blame for the fact WTW dont pick enough of these up but WTW
