Because I would be offering them the best RL academy in the country, dwarfing anything that any other club has to offer, and would be looking after them and their family in a suitably generous manner.

I agree with your view that the teams with performant academies, produce top class players that win GFs.

My problem is this:- imagine a top young halfback playing for an amateur team somewhere between Wigan, St Helens and Warrington. This top halfback dreams of winning GF's, World Club Championships and becoming a regular England International.

Wigan, Saints and Warrington have made offers to sign the player.

Why would this top young halfback choose Warrington?

Same reason everyone signs for Warrington. £££££££££.

I don't mind money as a motivation but at this club it appears to be the only one
