Can we have Mossop ?...we'd love a team of havener's

I agree entirely with young players going out to Championship clubs, it is a much higher standard than the U20 competiiton and many come back much better players. I was just stating with the number of young players going and playing in the Championship does MM think the U20s competition is not up to the neccessary standard to test the most promising juniors.

I'm pretty sure most coaches think that. I know IL has said as much in the past, and the press release implies it too:

"...an opportunity to play First Team Rugby League against senior players in a very competitive Championship side and gain higher-level match experience."

These deals tend to work where the players train with Wigan during the week and play fopr the championship clubs at the weekend. As for the cup they tend not to play in those rounds.

The dual reg players aren't allowed to play for any club but the parent club in the cup. It's a condition of the dual reg system. Wigan youngsters can only play for Wigan in the cup.
