Quote: GrahamBray "The youth set up is vital, can save thousands in the long term but we seem to have been lacking if I'm honest as we don't produce the homegrown stars that Wigan, Leeds and Castleford do on a consistent basis. I do hope that might change under Hodgson, I am really optimistic about the changes he has made and think he'll be a great coach and just what we needed after some "lazy" years under Radders, when we stagnated at all levels within the club.'"
Agreed except Cas, what players have they produced under Powell from their academy?
Huddersfield have a great academy set up.
Pearsons biggest mistake was the academy merger.
