I agree with what your saying rach and I am attending my first reserve game this week as I have seen plenty of footage and to be honest fans are talking more about them at the minute than the first team, so coming down to see the lads play. Great win for them at weekend and for any team reserve or not to pull off a win like that says it all really.

Not gonna turn this post in to a negative one but the one thing that is really annoying me with the reserves at the minute is Ben stead, getting himself 46 pts and kicking like he is it would be criminal now for him not to secure a spot in the first team. He has proven his self for most of this season now and seems to still struggle to get a call up into the first team. In my opinion he is a better quality than leatherbarrow.

Be interesting to see if he's called up for the next game. Also you have to take your hat off to dean muir, well done pal.

Yes, well said Rach. I've been to every U20 home game so far this season (sadly can't get to the away games) and have enjoyed every moment. Not because of the results. It's more to do with passion, desire and skill these lads show on the field. Well done and looking forward to the Leigh game.

Certainly not looking forward with the same enthusiasm to the Doncaster game.

As everyone has already stated... Well said Rach

At the current moment in time im actually looking forward to the under 20's than i am the first team! The quality of rugby is actually alot better than the first team. Maybe we should give the likes of dean and his coaches the chance at training the first team instead see if we can improve!?

The quality in the lads coming through the ranks is amazing and Ben definatly desreves a chance in the first team over marchy!

Yes, well said Rach. Wish I lived a bit nearer, I would definitely get down to watch the young lads.

Dean's asked me to add to this thread a mention to Jamie Chambers who does all the nutrition and conditioning work with the under 20's.

He said ' Jamie does a lot of quality work for the lads .The little things make a differance, He is huge for us.'

Looking forward to the U20s match , my first (of many hopefully) U20s game tis week v Leigh ,
Been watching all the footage thanks to the videos and have been massivley
impressed with what I have seen.

Good luck against Leigh , give 'em hell lads !!!
