I agree...

I think that the 'problem' is that the top players in Hull tend to realistically play for 2 or maybe 3 clubs at each age group hence why as a city we tend to do really well in the junior county competitions.

Compare it to West Yorkshire where the talent is far more spread out but come together at scholarship level.

I think thats a no brainer mate haha

Any o this confirmed? All I know is that the Sirius academy is a sports college specialising in rugby, is it not a company set up to help fund this as it would benefit both teams and could kind of do away with scholarships, which IMHO aren't great. The fall off rate is high a people develop differently and investing individually may prove frivolous some times. As someone posted earlier the potential to success rate is low.
Would love to know the full details though.

How old in rugby years would the players be?

I never realised rugby players where like cats when it came to years? how many human years in a rugby year?

Steve Menzies!!!!

Kit launched for the new teams

Seems to go against making the game stronger with more home grown players in the game .
Think this is another nudge to combine the 2 teams by the idiots at Redhall.

It's the two clubs' decision, I believe.
