If lads see that there is a way to SL below semi pro, or age grade level then they will be tempted to remain or return to the game IMO. If trialsits play on Wednesday evenings then theres no reason why they cant really turn out for their comminuity sides on weekends.

For me, I think its a really good way to take a look at those that have slipped through the net, deemed surplas to requirements or simply late developers.

Think that is the hope really, and obviously, that the 'hole in the net' will be closed going forward. Leaving all those players with nowhere to go was a big mistake, imo.

It was a shortsighted and idiotic move to scrap the reserve grade in the first place.

It gives young lads who aren't quiet up to 1st grade enough game time in order to develop under the club's watch rather than trying to work out less than useful dual-reg or load deals.

They're not 100% at fault though. Their mistake was letting the SL clubs vote on the subject in the first place, but ultimately it was the clubs themselves (us included iirc) that chose to do away with the reserves and bring dual reg etc in instead.

Quite right Nothus. But maybe the RFL shouldn't have made it a decision for clubs to make?
