More reserves bite the dust : Thu Jan 11, 2018 1:13 am  

Warrington and Hull are said to have abandoned their reserve teams ahead of the new season.

With no organised reserve system in place, a handful of Super League clubs have operated with reserve teams off their own backs in recent seasons, playing glorified friendly games.


It leaves just Wigan, St Helens, Wakefield, Keighley, Leigh and Halifax in running second strings, to bridge the gap between the first team and under 19s set ups.

They will already know the restructuring/licensing for 2019. We will have to wait.

Saints have also scrapped the reserves.

I think it's a joint effort atomic. A bit like HKR and Saints.

If we can’t get 17 lads from leigh to play for the academy it’s a bad day in my opinion when I was playing we had kids willing to wear the jersey
