Sounds good if other clubs do the same!

| Great news if it comes off and maybe one of the reasons for the U19 merger. It gives the picture a whole different look.

| In theory its a good idea, but will be interested to see how it works and who plays in it.
I personally think this would be better as a merged team and leave the 19's separate.

| Great idea and I hope that many teams end up participating. All they need to do is scrap the U23 bit and call it something like 'A team' as the OP says.

Yes, it's good news but having it as an U23 competition seems arbitrary. Also I thought the primary reason for merging the under 19's was to reduce cost. I would have thought having an U23 squad would be expensive.

Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?: |

| Several championship sides have been running u23 reserve sides for a couple of years. They would relish the chance to play super league reserve teams

| Cant see the point of limiting it to under 23 unless there is an agreement that you can play 2 or 3 overage players if necessary.
Why not just go back to the A team structure.
I said months ago Hull and HKR should have applied to put a joint team in Championship one playing home games at HKR.That would be better than dual reg and solve a lot of the problems of young players taking the next step to first team football.Probably more economic too than running two under 23 teams.
For me that would have been more acceptable than merging the academy.

| Are we likely to have 17 fit players every week for this team without playing a big chunk of the U19's?
