| Am I right that some clubs are offering large amounts of cash to U16's players - to unseat them from their scholarship places? Here was me thinking that all SL clubs were growing their own - I wasn't aware there was such a ruthless market for young players. And if they are doing that, how does the RFL rate them under their new grading system - surely offering 16 year old lads a big wad of cash is not a replacement for a viable youth set-up?

I suspect there's just been a very large case of this in the last few days!

| I'm surprised that it's allowed to happen - I realise that market forces are at work and that players have a value, but it seems unsavoury that a club can sit back, do very little at U16, then hoover up all the best kids that other clubs have produced purely by force of cheque book; should young lads be subject to that form of ruthlessness at 16 years old?
And that's not to mention the total disregard for the community clubs who provide SL clubs with the raw material in the first place.

| Quote The Avenger="The Avenger"Sounds like Morgan Smith was the difference and he's a Wakefield lad so We can take a bit of credit for their win.'"
Really!! Morgan is a Cas lad went to Cas academy.
Either way he's a good talent and seems very level headed. Has a junior he collected plenty of colours playing with fev lions,Cas panthers,normanton and Stanley. He's continued that trend having already been at Leeds and now at Warrington by all accounts for a good sum of money.
That would be my only concern that he's been pushed from pillar to post and never really settled.

Cas is a small Town in Wakefield so what's your point?

Like they all seem to do from over the common, constantly seeking way to score points over us especially when we've just beat them.

| Tris from Harry Swan,Tom Johnstone,Jordon Crowther and unable to get the other 2 try scorers names,sorry  but a great team performance by young lads against a experienced ,mature side,2 pretty simple kick missed which would have made it 30 ,but still a geat victory for an improving side.
