In summary, the evidence quite clearly shows that Championship clubs need to follow the Halifax model.

Don't forget they are the best part-time team in the UK.

I agree Halifax are run well.
Bulls run a full scholarship programme also full academy and reserves other clubs struggling for players should take note.

Absolutely, Bradford is probably the second best part-time team in the UK too.

We have sold over 600 tickets for the game at Featherstone. Not a bad effort considering what is going on at the club, and that we have had to borrow 7 SL academy players to make it a 17 v 17 game.
Obviously the 'usual suspects' will wade in with their size 9's tomorrow night....all 3 of them !

I hope it's a great game and despite the troubles still a shame it's not on TV. All the best for both teams next season in expectation of an even more competitive and exciting time than SL.

Why are players unavailable other than those that are injured?

FFS..I fell for it. You made me give me a long explanation when basically you couldn't give a ****. The words 'live & learn' spring to mind.
Still can't decide who is the most annoying coward on here, you or Lebron James.

Aren’t Barrow already in the championship?

That’s super duper league fans for you. No idea about anything outside of the elite environment of Wakefield.

Cambria is mid Wales, maybe thats what Snowie meant.

We've signed Jake Webster which is an unbelievable signing IMO. Also signed a winger from Hunslet who i can't see playing much and Jon Margrin from Sheffield. Rumoured with Brad Dwyer and Sam Hopkins. Suspect a few championship clubs will also ne waiting to see of Toronto earn promotion and pick up some players they release. We're a very young squad so hopefully can grow as a team. A few more young players breaking through too. York i think will go well too next year.

But we have to beat Workington first which is one hell of a tough task.

On Leigh, i hope they sort it, christ knows we know how it feels. Dire situation at the moment though.

Mate, Jake was one of (if not the) popular players at Cas. we've let him go for a reason but hope for his sake it goes well.
