I am pretty sure it has been done before, but after Saturday's game when was the last time an all-British 17 team was fielded for a SL match?

Thought Saturday was a good performance from a very young side, with 14 out of 17 players home-grown and 11 of them 23 and under. Great effort and a fantastic achievement for the club and shows how well our youth development is doing

It's not the first time as I'm pretty sure we've done it before and similarly Leeds and Wigoon have I think.

I think Huddersfield may have also done it last year.

All that said, it is an achievement to have 15 of our own academy products in the starting 17.

According to Simmons, not in Superleague.
