Quote: Stand-Offish "But they have only lost at home to Barrow and Workington and that is impressive. '"
Indeed.
But we are at least the equal of those teams ... the league table tells us that.
Also a look at our away form suggests we should be good enough ... yes we lost to the other three promoted clubs away (but against the lowest placed of those we picked up a bonus point). We have beaten all the other play-off chasers home and away.
London have improved and are dangerous opponents on their own patch but we have the players and the form to complete the job.
Quote: Wanderer "I can think of a good home for them if they're not playing SL games.
I bet you can . Id be surprised not to see these lads become a regular started for wakey in the next 1-2 seasons, the experience at dons will only aid them and is mutually beneficial for your club too (although in most cases short term).
Spiers I know has been with you all season and he is another who could push for a shirt next year. Not sure if he is out of contract with wakey though.
It has stand offish , just hope that the new partnership isn't overkill. Would like to see a team representing Doncaster ,not Wakefheld reserves. Could in theory be watching a super league reserve league next season by all accounts. Not a good thing in my opinion.Its about right as it is
The wakey production line has always been good but with the pressures of fighting relegation the opportunity for some of the young stars has been limited over the years. It's good to see wakey blooding a few this year but I'm very much fond of the DReg idea if it doesnt become overbearing.
I'd be happy to see the partnership continue with dons. The current under 20s/18s at wakey has alot of talent but not the opportunity to display it at a higher level.
Obviously you don't want a full team of wakey fringe/ young players but it doesn't hurt to have a fair amount. At the end of the day if it adds to the quality of your team it can only be a good thing whether it be for a year or more. Some players only remain at clubs for a year anyway which is pretty much the same thing bar the option to recall for a SL game if needed.
I agree trojan horse that having a few is good for both teams.But by all accounts next season,with the super league clubs cutting the under 20s, there can be as many as 10 at one time,with 8 allowed to be in the team at once. That is too many imo , and would devalue the championship. Don't pretend to know what the state of play is regarding payments to dual reg players, but just wonder if clubs could be enticed to play dual reg players , thus cutting out the part time players who may be on pay as you play deals
