Quote ="Der Kaiser 1"SL Clubs do not care about the National team , the game or even about players who do not make the gade in many cases. They are only interested in themselves and making sure they do the bare mimium to stay in SL under the franchise b*****. Wigan full of c*** Aussies as is Salford, Wakey, Cas, Hull KR etc. What has Bradford, Salford and Huddersfield done about developing the game in their own area? Little as its easier to come to get talent and fans from Halifax, Leigh, Oldham etc. Strange how Quins can field a team with more English players in then most SL teams! The Pro game is full of c*** and bringing c*** coaches like Nathan Brown across is laughable-what has he achieved ever?
The RFL, BARLA and the amateur game should be looking more at how to improve facilities at amateur clubs and how to improve training standards at Youth level especially. But they do not really care as each has its own agenda and own excuses.
Actually the amateur clubs in the Huddersfield area are working very hard to develop junior teams(particularly Newsome, Meltham, Moldgreen, Lindley, Underbank). My sons play U10's and we seem to be visiting a Huddersfield team every week whereas when my older son now 18 was playing at a similar age we would only play in Huddersfield twice a season at most.
