Quote: Ornery Optimist " I thought your argument,was producing Super League players? '"
Nope, not my argument. Primarily Superleague want clubs with a junior development system, and SKY pay £300,000 a year per SL club to help it along.Newcastle have set the system up and if they were in Superleague they would have £300K a year to enhance it
and then can offer top local talent a pathway to Pro-RL.
This is why relegating London shuts off quality young Londoners from becoming Superleague players through the Broncos system. My "argument" is probably that clubs should not be allowed in Superleague without a junior development system and an academy. That would include Salford and Leigh. I think it was the rule at one time??
