The problem is very few championship sides want to blood a 18/19 year old when they have their own players some of which rely on that wage. Leeds have used fev and Bradford recently using duel reg but as shown with fev it can quickly go sour when regular players move on.mart0042 wrote:Storey and Carr should be blooded now at league one or championship level. Increase the intensity. I've been impressed with what I've seen could be a very good one side option.
You know it will be done on the cheap how many in the u19s are on less than min wagebraytontiger wrote:The problem is very few championship sides want to blood a 18/19 year old when they have their own players some of which rely on that wage.

Another factor is we can barely field a 19s side never mind allowing 3/4 lads out on loan even though its not always the best for a young players development. Running a reserves in 2020 is a step in the right direction but I just hope it isn't done on the cheap.
That's no different to any other player they are all given targets. Lewis is no exception.gateman wrote:Lewis Carr, the club are hoping the lad can bulk up in the off season they have given a target weight they would like him to attain. next year he will be set another target , the lad is only just 18 and only slightly built if he can bulk up and retain the speed and skills he as we will have an hell of a player, IF we can keep hold of him

the point I was trying to make is it will take a couple of years before the lad has the size to compete in super league , I wrote this for any of our fans who do not attend our under 19s matchesbraytontiger wrote:That's no different to any other player they are all given targets.

If people did attend they would relise that he is a few years away before SL he still a very long way off a lot better players in the 19s but he young we will seegateman wrote:the point I was trying to make is it will take a couple of years before the lad has the size to compete in super league , I wrote this for any of our fans who do not attend our under 19s matchesbraytontiger wrote:That's no different to any other player they are all given targets.

He has bulked up, but doesn't look like a carpet carrier that some expect a rugby player to look like.jackknife wrote:Has anyone seen Minikin recently?
