Yep they need to back this up next couple of home games, and provide a similar experience (with the caaveat that the team actually wins)

Not sure about Peter. I once bumped into an old youth coach of his up north. He was quite damning, saying Broncos harmed his career. He stated the senior coaching staff basically ignored Peter and the youth set ups we occasionally got together for him to play in simply weren't good enough. As such, Peter spent much of his time with us playing RU for Charlton Park, to ensure he got game time.

To be fair he also said the - then full time - Broncos learnt a lot from what happened to Peter and was confident any youngsters heading south then would have been treated much better.

Interesting to think what our best home grown team might be. Seems to be the more creative positions we have struggled to develop.

I can't understand the youth setup being ignored back in the late 90's Peter Lupton played in the same academy team as my sons friend (who we used to sponsor). As far as I know they had the same opertunities back then as they have know playing against other super league club academies. Where possible we used to watch the academy games at home and away. If my memorey serves me right Bev Risemen used to be involved with the youth setup at Brtoncos in the late 90's.

It was a long time ago now but from memory he felt Peter didn't play enough RL in London, the junior sides he played in were too weak to develop properly, training was below the standard required for the same reason and that he was mismanaged during the transition to adult RL.

One persons perception obviously but he was a friend of the Lupton family so was probably well informed.

Watched the highlights on YouTube....we looked unorganised
