Coming from the "GIANTS" I was surprised how small he was.

ENOUGH to put 100 points past somebody, because they are that good.

Watched Hemingway since he was a 'kid' big boot, small heart, been on loan to I forget who, never set the world on fire, they need a big squad because they are playing the 'no reserve team' game.

There is a difference... HKR went on to prove it, I don't see Fax still being a contender in three years time.

In short, I think you're going to peak too soon. Any players that you bring through in this season or next will be playing SL before Fax will. Year three is going to be the crucial year - there will be no advance warning of who will be promoted (if any are) as this will defeat the object of the three year strategy.
With this in mind, and young player who thinks he's good enough to play in SL will surely take any contract offered him? I know I would. This clearout of your quality players will then have a knock on effect leading to you needing to recruit quickly in your third season, and then into your first season of SL.
I'm not saying that you'll not get into SL, only that you'll get your backsides kicked from Catalan to St Helens.

Next years conquering side will be the side that would survive.

IMHO
