Me. Won't be going to watch a merged team though. What's the point? Who gives a fook if a merged team wins or not? it's not my team

I suggest all those throwing their toys out, listen to the interview, and to what he and Smith are actually saying.

Presumably we would have been one of them. I'll bet 4 of the 8 will be warrington, st helens, leeds and wigan with no pressure for any of those to merge.

I guess it'll come down to catchment areas, but you're probably right.

Exactly. I won't wait with baited breath for close neighbours like Wigan and Saints to announce a merged academy.

Clearly it's an opportunity to cut costs under the guise of RFL driven mergers. What a bloody week this has been.

A date for everybody's diary, perhaps.

Saturday, 11th July 14:00 Hull FC U19s v Wigan Warriors U19s @Hull YPI






Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

I can't justify a 240 mile round trip for U19s. If I lived locally I would attend most games. I would not attend a merged 19s game though.

Do Catalan have an academy?. If so surely they would be 1 on its own. So that would leave 7 Or am I missing something where rfl want 8 on British soil and Catalan not included?






ITS ROUGH ITS TOUGH ITS RUGBY LEAGUE!!!

Not sure what table your looking at as we sit in 5th 4 points behind Hull in 3rd.
