Youth age-group success is not that a great indicator of who’ll make it in SL. Even at Wigan a high proportion don’t make it. Here are the youth England squads from 2015, as an example. It’s the same story every year though.

Questioning youth development systems… well, it’s an emotive subject and a lot of fans have sunk a lot of hope into, and are generally pretty to reluctant to write off that investment. It’s bound to come good eventually - it stands to reason, surely. |

Looks like Sneyd could be signing for Leigh. Sat on the fence regards Sneyd. Certainly would improve us but rumoured 3 year deal for Leigh which I wouldn't be happy with. Wouldn't be devastated if he signed for them. Hopefully we can get Cross over the line soon. Would certainly add a bit of pace to the centres. Then fingers crossed another signing to add. We could finish up with a backline
Moy
Barron
Rapana
Cross
Martin
Now that's a pacey young backline

[quote="Tarquin Fuego"]Grix ran almost all the season and didn’t have the notion to increase fitness mid season, which can be done !
He also was responsible for the worst rugby ever served up by FC in 150 years
To be fair to Grix by the time he took over we had loads of injuries and suspensions so not so many training at all

Not heard anything, but can see Grix moving on after this year. Just a feeling.

Squad seems pretty healthy si far with only Litten and Dawson not available for selection.
