Someone ought to tell your Head of Youth Development to get his facts right though...Jonathan Walker was not 'home -grown ' but came through the junior ranks at Keighley Cougars till he was 16.

Re: 5 juniors promoted : Fri Oct 05, 2012 1:22 pm  

counts as homegrown because he as played in the u18' & u20's academy...
by the sounds of that he was on keighleys scholarship signed for bradford academy was not there long and then joined Cas academy with his brother.

No ones needs to tell our head of youth development anything - John Walker is classed as home-grown with Castleford Tigers by the RFL. Its official.

He'll be at hudds or hull soon then , thats the path our homegrown players seem to take !

Back to 5 juniors promoted, i dont get to see many of the juniors. Only when they get the odd chance due to injuries in the 1st team.

How good are they?
