Been thinking about this for a while and just thought I'd ask which club actually produces the best local talent out of the Super League and championship?

There is a difference between, best, most, most of the best, etc.

Define local, is Paul Cooke a product of Hull FC or Hull KR? another question is, is he a talent or a talent wasted.

Is local born and bread within x miles of a club, what is local when aa player is X/2 from two clubs.

SL clubs and championship clubs don't 'produce talent' they buy into it.

Aye probably Wigan, then Leeds.

But I was thinking this question earlier, which is more noteworthy; the location of the amateur club, or the professional club?

Take James Donaldson, is he a Bradford product or a Cumbrian one?

(This was because I was wondering which was more important/powerful for development, the amateur clubs or professionals?)
