PREPOSTEROUS

True, but it could also mean those players have more competition to get a first team spot, drivingup standards. 10 is too many, and you won't get any argument from me, but the club have committed to keep bringing youth through, either directly or indirectly, in tandem with the increase in quota.

Jowitt Johnstone Pratt Hall Smith Lingard All come through the scholarship/academy at Wakefield and played SL this season. Griffin and Pitts too but they're towards the end of their careers, we've also few young players from other clubs academics in Jyden Myers, Noah High and Neil Tchamambe in and around the first team. Although I'd prefer them not to use the full 10 spots, 11 as Isaiah Vagana is classed as federation trained, the youth development remains a key part of the clubs focus on becoming a regular top 6 club, and hopefully beyond. For me there needs to be a plan in place to get this number down to either what it was or lower in 5 or so years.

I see plenty of young faces, but then as a sport we've been doing plenty that would appeal to these youngsters with the social media focus and drive on presentation of the game. Focusing an fixture list as been the thing to solve the lack of money is shortsighted. Continuing the push on driving the next generation of fans, and players, is what is key in all of this, but I fear it will be lost as its not a quick fix.

A lot words, but the crux for me is this paragraph; As central revenues have receded over recent years, we need to find opportunities to replace this and deliver to clubs the most compelling fixture list we can, to give the clubs themselves the best opportunities to grow. All this to get a more commercially beneficial fixture list. Thats the extent of the ideas they have had to save the sport milking the same cow again and again. That audience is getting older and will be gone, what is this review doing to drag the sport into the 21st century and get the next generation into League?

I think that may be announced tomorrow, delighted for him if so, and to be fair he's worked his ###### off to get the chance to play in SL by working his way up.

Bad, as others have said, if we are increasing to 14 clubs, allow the promoted teams 10 quota/NFT players with a reduction on numbers over, say, five years back to 7. A whole blanket increase is not good and I hope not all clubs take advantage of this. At the very least have a match day cap on numbers.

Shame, he was doing such a magnificent job. Bet Craig Lingard is having a little chuckle.

Last few weeks he's been playing really well, and did in the first half. The whole team were guilty of over playing in the second and bombed plenty. Disappointing as that 6th place could be decided on points difference.

For all tha stuck in the first half, nothing did in the second and even for a Trinity fan it was a tough watch. Catalans are awful, and niggley. Trinity lost composure and seemed to think they had to score ever set. Anyhow absolutely magnificent take for Rourke' first try.

The pulling up a player who may be injured is a big no, and has been for a while. I don't know the reasoning why Horne got 6 games and Martin 0, although Martin's was a little tug on Jowitt's shirt where as Horne actually lifted the player, whether that difference is reflected in the punishment I don't know.

I agree in part, but in terms tangable improvements, it's largely the same as it's always been, so when asking for rival fans thoughts on the ground, they may not be as glowing as the home fans. All in good time though, and if we want that k average, some home fans will have to take up the WT.
