After your Pryce and Flanaghan as home-grow Wigan players I thought you'd have learnt to check facts.

If you had I think you would have discovered that Riley, Harrison, Cooper and McCarthy are all products of Warrington's Academy who played both at Wembley and in the match you refer to.

Although I don't want to get involved in the petty argument, I find it somewhat ironic that you critisise Wigan for scouting youth from within rugby league to train up within their own academy/reserve structure, yet you laud Warrington for doing it from Rugby Union.

Lost me on that one I'm afraid. Where have I made this criticism?

Uh-oh Steinlager, it looks like it's to late you've already been drawn in.






Wigan vs Leeds finals aggregate score.

Wigan 178 - 64 Leeds

Wigan wins - 6 Leeds wins - 0


I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.

Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

Whilst Stinky may not have been overly wise to have at a go at Wigan's Academy at the same time I think the original jibe at Warrington's academy is also mis-placed. There may have been a few lean years since the likes of Sculthorpe and Harris came through but recent times have seen the likes of Harrison, Riley and Cooper (and for a year Penny) become regular Super League players.

The current Warrington Academy contains some players that are as good as any I have seen at that level. The club is also being pro-active in its recruitment and going into Rugby Union heartlands to sign young prospects.

For example there was a recent England v Australia u18 rugby union international held in the north-west. Only two super league clubs had represensatives there looking for talent and talking to agents representing the players. Don't knock clubs who are doing everything they can to recruit the country's top talent, you'd be better off going back to the woah-is-me hand-wringing over the salary cap.


There.

So you're telling me that only 4 out of the 17 participated at Wembley? Well done!! I was of course referring to the laughable comments from your mate regarding the fact you played 8 homegrown players in a meaningless match and came on here hoping to score brownie points!!
At the end of the day Wigan's youth policy is up there with the best in the game, this is starting to bear fruit (reserves wiping the floor against all opposition last season, the emeregence of top class young players into our first team, we have plenty to smile about!!

Not quite an "End of" just like it wasn't quite "argument won" previously.


Paul, even for you that's a bit stupid.

Warrington have won two trophies at first team level in the last twenty years.
How many have they won at academy / reserve level in that time?

How many International players have they produced in that time that have come through their own youth system?

Do you think it gets anywhere near that of Wigan?






SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row
