Why is it always leeds and saints who get mentioned about their junior developement, bulls have developed more than saints, more bulls academy reared players played for england in aus than saints.
Sykes, pryce, peacock, langley compared to roby, graham and wellens..unless you insist on counting gardner(barrow) and wilkin(hull kr) as most posters do. Plus burgess would have played if not injured, poss deacs as backup if not injured, fielden if form hadnt dropped.

if you look at leeds 1st team squad at the moment i think it is a pretty impressive advert for their youth development. i noticed when i watched their opening game againts celtic that their 17 had a fair amount of home grown talent.
