This is massive. Now the genie is out of the bottle expect to see other Championship sides become the feeder clubs for SL teams - Hunslet for Leeds, Keighley for Bradford and who knows one day (oh please, god, please...) Hull Fc for Rovers...
As part of the RFL player development plans announced a couple of months back it was decided that players will be able to be dual-registered for the first time. So any clubs will be able to do something like this, as it's generally accepted that the reserve grade isn't really up to standard for developing players who will be better served by playing in Championship or Championship 1 matches.
Quote="Hull Kingston Bronco"Because this represents a massive policy shift by the RFL, and completely changes the strategic landscape of the Co-Operative leagues. This is the first example of non-SL competitions being used as minor leagues, in the same way the NSW Premier League and Queensland Cup is full of feeder clubs for the NRL.
