Partnership? : Tue Dec 10, 2019 10:00 am
What's your opinion on the proposed partnership between us Halifax and Hunslet?It's great that we'll be able to share different ideas and goals but the proposal that we amalgamate player's into just one joint reserve team seems a bit counter productive to me. With players from each club pooled together will it really benefit all 3 clubs in the long term? Think it would be better to enter our own team into the reserve league so that if and when we need a certain player called back into the SL team he'll be fully up to speed on our systems not a combined system of SL championship and league 1 systems.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for improving the standards of rugby but who is going to get the greatest say on who plays in the reserves, probably us, so it could limit the players from Halifax and Hunslet getting much needed game time therefore not increasing their standards.
Really hope it works out for each club and as I said a positive step on many levels but only time will tell.
Grandad.
