Is David Sinclair correct? : Thu May 07, 2009 10:25 pm  

In his letter to the Rhinos, would an Under 20 round work?

Not really IMO, We can all go see under 20's play in academy games etc, Just dont think it will get the interest generated by "the 1st team" and also may put season ticket holders off if it was a home match

good point well made

Isn't that what we did against Cas last year?

Any coach can do this at any stage.

They choose not to.

Scary letter because that is also my name, I have been following the Rhinos for over 20 years, but I don't agree with the suggestion. Maybe my alter ego wrote it in my sleep.

We're a progressive sport so as long as such suggestions are being mentioned and posted by the club on its official website I think it's all good gravy.

Not a fan of the idea per say, but maybe it could work on a smaller scale.

I reckon it was "Stinky Pete", you've got to watch him you know, he'd sell his own Granny....

oh, btw, dumb idea. As G1 says, nothing stopping us doing this at any time anyway.

We more or less did this against cas last year and i wouldn't mind some kind of "fixture" in the calender where say the clubs agree to have 14/15 english/homegrown player's in their team.
Whatever the outcome the "reserve" league need's some kind of shake up imo to improve it and make it more meaningfull.
