In the last 2 years, Tom Briscoe, maybe Mike Burnett?
We were fortunate to have a really good batch of players aged 18-20 in the 21s who we've luckily been able to call upon.

Theres 5 or 6 of them that wouldnt and shouldnt have been playing as much 1st grade rugby as they did but needs must.

So where do they play most of their rugby? Give me a break.

Briscoe, hodgson and maybe burnett?

FCIMP has a very good point RBA. I reckon you had a pretty settled squad throughout the grades last season so you should have performed more consistantly.

Did taylor ever play academy last season out of interest?

Thought Hodgson was older, he is 22 now isnt he?

Hodgson didnt play first team whilst still eligable for the under 18s. Dont think Burnett did either but could be wrong.
Hodgson is 19.

So there is never any venow aimed from east to west? Come on Rob get real.

As for reason for not travelling to CP from fans of all teams in SL they are completely justified especially when they have to use the south stand. Especially Hull fans who are discriminated against by having to pay more than any other team just becuase you need the money.

If Rovers fans don't want to watch then it's fine by me, if they don't want to go to watch because some Hull fans moan about CP (quite rightly) then it's pathetic.

Did you play another ineligable player or do the RFL use school years as the criteria for eligability, therefore he would be available for under 20s next season.'"

having just checked the rfl rules for academy players I'd like to retract that comment

What exactly was incorrect in that statement Paul.
Im well aware it works both ways but in this instance it looks like a fair chunk of Rovers fans are not going to bother with this game in January.
And in this instance we are discussing attendance at the KC.
The reasons vary from not wanting to spend cash on a pre season game to in their reasoning tat for tat for Hull fans not selling out their tickets at CP amongst others.
These opinions have been taken from our unofficial forum, the HDM website and people i have spoken to.
Just as you say some Hull fans were justified not wanting to watch the game from the South Stand at Rovers, that was their choice, be it the other way round i would still attend as my team would be there and ive been to far worse places then Craven Park.
You may say its pathetic, i say its freedom of choice.

Well 99% of the Rovers fans who post on RLFans also post across on our Unofficial forum.
Thats the Forum Hudge refers to in his interview as reading on occasions then its fairly indictitive that the dross he refers too doesnt come from them.
And if he thought upon them as being Cabbages he would avoid that forum also surely.
