With the new superleague re-structure i feel for the younger players who won't get even a look in cos the coaches wouldn't want to risk playing them (that is bar Wigan). Look at the young kids over the past few years and the current season Max Jowitt who i believe could be a real quality player won't get a look in, Annakin, Trout, Walshaw, Crowther, won't get a look in next year cos we've already signed Ashurst (I'm not dissing Ashurst). The young lads who we've let go Liam Kay, Danny Cowling, Tom Lillycrop, jordan Grayshon (to name a few) could have become good players. Wants going to happen to Wildie he is Wakey through and through but he's probably going to be surplus to requirements. I hope that the youngsters get their chances next year but i cann't see it and that means that yet more young talent will look elsewhere. I do believe that the new three leagues of 8 could be in the short term good for the sport but long term i don't know. Not many teams will be willing to let the youngsters have their chance. Any thoughts?

Quote: wrencat1873 "Disagree with that Pop Tart.
One of the reasons for franchising and then licensing, without relegation, was to help SL clubs develop young British players, because this wasn't happening enough when promotion and relegation were in vogue.
THE primary concern for all top flight clubs will be survival and the need for SL status will be far more important than having a couple more youngsters in the squad.
OK, the cap will still be in place and there will be some rules about the make up of each clubs squad but, survival is key.
Even as Wakey fans, you would sacrifice a young player if it meant staying up and that's before our best talent gets poached by the bigger clubs.'"


That is really my point.
I completely agree with everything you say, in that it was the opportunity to do it and young players should have been given the chance when there was no risk.
The problem is that clubs still didn't do it (imho) so now they bring P&R back, how an it be worse.

Personally, I much preferred the franchise system for that reason alone, but that has now gone.

Im talking about speculating on talent not money,your comment makes no sense.

On the issue of NRL teams bringing in young players - they're hardly untested; they have a really high quality comp for feeder teams that sits below the NRL, in which these players will have cut their teeth before you see them play for the parent club.

If we had a more meaningful youth set-up at each club, instead of having allowed the clubs to ditch it to save money, that might help address the problem.

Can't argue with that, all be it a slightly bigger issue. I'm very aware of the disadvantages our young players face mostly through no fault of their own. This is why I narrowed it down to backs who traditionally are ready earlier than most others. It would be a brave coach to do it at Wakefield where unlike Wigan there is no margin for error or ability to buy your way out if it goes wrong. None the less I'd love to see it.

Point proven with London signing Mathers, I believe that they have a young fullback called Innes Macrani (that's a rough attempt at his name), surely Mathers will replace him at London. Craig Hall 'could' be our new full-back for next year i'd rather have Jowitt be given the last four games in preparation for next year cos whats the point playing Mathers, I'd also let the young guns have a proper set of matches, Danny Cowling made his debut against Bradford last year i think, he did only one thing wrong and we don't see him again. Surely Liam Kay is better than any current winger at the club. Mr Webster let the young un's have a go for the last 4
