Rovers haven't disregarded youth whatsoever in the present day, when it's starting point was and never has been shyed away from not great. It's going to take time.
Wakefield have produced some great youngsters, no problem praising where it's deserved.
Not that I’m wanting to fan any fires but I do have one genuine question.
Didn’t Hull and KR both have a joint academy/scholarship a few years ago? Is that still the case and do you think that negatively or positively impacted either teams or has it created a player generation gap for either team?
Be interesting to see how a KR fan would view that. Im guessing KR now have their own academy and scholarship.
Apologies if im wrong about this as I genuinely aren’t sure what the current set up is.
Some fans push for joint academies or regional academies so be interesting to hear as this would be the closest as a test to that.
