  1. Wakefield seem to have a real in gem in Harvey Smith
  2. Salford is in Yorkshire??
  3. If there’s not enough money to share equally between 14 teams and there’s not enough players without filling up with second grade NRL players then it shouldn’t be 14
  4. I wonder how many tickets have been sold now
  5. People in Wigan don’t have apps!
  6. I think he’ll need some elocution lessons to get his Wigan accent back first
  7. I agree and also think that this overseas quota is the same thing. It’s a way for the clubs who don’t invest in junior pathways to try and keep up with the clubs like Leeds, Wigan and Saints who do. SL will never progress whilst it keeps lowering standards to keep the bottom clubs afloat
  8. I agree with the second part but still think that if the base is bigger then more quality will filter to the top
  9. Completely agree, although there’s Manchester, Liverpool and Sheffield that could have more teams. It would also be easier for any new clubs in these cities compared to other places as they would have lots of teams nearby so would never be short of someone to play. I would love to see London properly targeted for junior development though as it’s a massive potential player pool
  10. Great numbers and a welcome positive. I wonder what the numbers are like for kids
  11. Is this just for adults or does it include kids too?
  12. I thought I wouldn’t like a 10 team SL but I don’t watch when Salford, Hudds and Castleford play each other due to the low quality of the teams involved. Going to 10 teams would increase the quality and reduce the reliance on signing second grade Aussies
  13. It’s not as simple as that. More academies won’t increase the player pool unless the work is done at grassroots level to increase the number of kids playing the game
  14. Maybe this proves that there aren’t enough quality players for more than 10 teams in SL
  15. Don’t think I’ll be watching SL next year tbh
  16. The British player pool needs to be increased. Short term thinking that will just end up shrinking the player pool in this country. Just sign a NSW/Queensland Cup player instead of investing in the community game. SL is just going to be a second tier competition for players who can’t make it in the NRL. What actual benefits does it have for the game in this country?
  17. Looks like the quota increase has been agreed. I don’t like the idea of the quota increasing. Just means clubs will sign more second rate Aussies at the expense of young British talent. If there’s an influx of Queensland and NSW cup players into SL I’ll probably just stop watching
  18. Would any other local clubs be willing to get involved in some 9 a side or touch rugby mini tournaments during those months?
  19. That’s the issue with being outside the heartlands I suppose. Hopefully they’ll get into the origin squad and see a pathway in RL
  20. You can’t always be right @Harry Stottle
  21. I like Minchella but think Knowles and Smithies are a bit better
  22. If Radley isn’t available I think it’s a straight choice between Knowles and Smithies. Not sure who I prefer
