If he doesn't make the grade it's the fault of the coaches not the volunteer coaches who got him to that level . Too many times I have seen good kids ruined by clubs who try to change the kids style of play ,take Craig dean as an example he was the fastest and most talented half back in the game at 16 signed for fax under Steve Simms and they tried to turn him into a ball playing pivot . His career went down from that point.111111111. I don't trust the Rfl , never have. They look after the elite clubs . The pathway is flawed by greed . The clubs want something for nothing and treat some kids like a piece of rotten meat and when they don't make it they are cast aside ,and never come back to the community game . How many times have you seen a class half back turned into a hooker or a great second rower into a a great winger into a full back . Get them in and get them in quick is the motto for pro clubs , .where is the pathway for the coach , sorry but unless the game puts money into the grass roots we will never beat the Australians . The key word is development for all ,and pay for it at any cost . If Leigh get relagated the reserve team will go along with the youth policy . Why .is it money . Yes . The problem doesn't go away

Sounds simple.
Humour us. Leigh are sl team who would be our feeder club(s).Where would they get players from. Who would they be contracted to if RFL are paying, have you got to sign players from your feeder club can the rfl place them like a draft system

If they are part of your feeder club,you own them anyway. We have to build a feeder club first.
Is that enough humour for you.

What Clubs would you choose? One of mine would be Cumbrian.

Good evening, Fetchit. Bongser for one is glad, as are others passim, that you have continued to post. He values your input as he valued that of Mr C before his sabbatical. If said gentleman is, as you tell us, still not at his best, then please convey Bongser's compliments to him for what they be worth.

You are obviously very protective of a man for whom you have the utmost respect, but seem to think that Bongser has a problem with him. From where does this arise? Bongser, having read elsewhere that he was not well, chose not to respond to a personal attack a few weeks ago and, upon receiving an unsolicited apology, merely replied "sorted" and changed the subject.

As to running a mile from him ten years ago, haha, Bongser doubts he could have even jogged a mile FIFTEEN years ago.

Btw you doxed yourself. No agenda here. Keep posting.

Can you currently state how much clubs are saving on the salary cap by way of the RFL dispensation of youth within a squad?

Thats why the likes of Wigan have a production line.Fed by all.Stop that and all becomes even.

Whatever you say,has been done and failed.New era,new game. The past has failed,time to move on and if you can't afford to get on board,your also history.
