They are not gash but they are physically much smaller than some of the other sides in the league because they are younger. Hull KR, for example, are a really big side this year but last year they were a year younger and had 12 months less physical training etc. Next year though most will be too old whereas the Huddersfield team will all still be there and a year older with more strength and experience etc. The league table in the academy isn't as open and shut as the win column.

Most of Cas' team are 16 so you can't go on age/development really because a couple of the better teams are young.

But I have to agree with you on that Hull KR team, they're very big...but will most of them be moving onto reserves next season?
