| Quote: Dave K. "Yeah agree, they are the benchmark, we had 6 players (Add in to that Naulogo off injured, Lane playing with an injury and Fonua not fit) out of our 17, when this happens we just dont have the quality to replace them, particulary in the forwards, we don't seem to produce the young squad players that Saints and Wigan do.
Strongest 17 against Stongest 17 I think in a one off game we could beat anyone, we just don't have the squad to or menatally to do it week in week out and finish at the top. Wouldn't suprise me to see us win the cup again, but I really want us to get to the Grand Final.'"
It amazes me that a so called rugby league mad city can't produce its own players and has had to resort to merging acadamies to be able to get a team out in the last few years.

It depends on how rich you are and how far you will to take players from outside of its catchment area like Wigan do

There must be millions of amateur clubs in the rugby mad city of Hull. Wigan surely don't sign every upcoming player

| So the rugby mad city of hull can't produce it's own players because Wigan steal them all?
Then where do they go, because most of our academy graduates are from Wigan?

We were beaten by the current champions. How did you get on against last years bottom dweller?

Hull have their fair share of West Yorkshire juniors in their academy/scholarship set up and flash their cash around the juniors way outside of the Hull & District Leagues

No longer merged academies, both the Hull clubs run their own scholarship and academy now

We produce plenty of players who play international, but they never fully develop, not sure if that's coaching or attitude.
COHA was a massive and will have set both clubs a couple of years.

Ryan Hampshire wasn't from Wigan when they nipped in and signed him from Normanton Knights on his 16th birthday, who held his registration while he was still on a 2 year scholarship at Hull.

From Normanton that is in a Wakefield Postcode much the same as St Helens being a Liverpool postcode
