No I didn't, I mentioned their reserve grade (if they are having one) who says that one has to be full of local players, what I am saying is 'it's pointless'....when any players that aren't getting 1st team action, can just be loaned out, or dual registered. I'm not stupid, where would they suddenly find some 'half decent' Canadian RL players. A reserve grade only makes sense for a club with a 'catchment' area, and obviously that's not Toronto yet. In 2016 our reserve team manager told me it costs 90k to run one, and a lot of fixtures were being cancelled, due to other clubs not being able to field a team.

| Canoeboy can't talk Rugby League as he doesn't know anything about it. Glory Hunter who is only used to seeing his team win, hope they get promoted (if/when we don't). Won't be so cocky then. BRING IT ON !

Your last paragraph is bang on....in a way its actually very sad at the same time as being an utter comedy sketch as the pathetic show at Leigh continues... until the next weekly episode...as Trump is to political satire Leigh is to Rugby League comedy....

Canoeboy, you are so full of ****. So you ignore the post which explained I wasn't having a go at a new team for not having a 'youth/academy' team....stop being jealous of Leigh Centurions because we have been in existence for a 140 years.
I am now going to re-post what I typed after DGM was getting all excited. You won't respond to this sensibly because you are a tit.

| Jeez, do you read other people's posts properly ? We only didn't have one for 2016 & 2017. Your GOD Paul Rowley & Simon Finnigan were part of this decision to scrap our reserve grade in 2015...you have one serious 'man crush' don't you luv ?

You won't be running a reserve team for 20+ years. Thats if your still in it.

Old Canadian Proverb: "They cannot see the forest because of the trees."
Everybody on here, except the blind Leigh robot faithful, understands that Toronto is currently already running a reserve side...our farm team is based in Leigh...so obvious to even the most casual of observers!

You really are a funny one now aren't you Atomic (P.S. I always carry a compass in the canoe if you ever need to borrow it just ask; I will always show you 'the way'.
Hope you are feeling better.
