Looks like that is how sides will use the reserve league, I would expect us to have York players in ours when they are not required for the first team

Re: 2020 Squad
And its a great idea.
We need 19 players in first team and reserve squads. 38 full time players is a lot of money especially if we want to have 27 players who are super league quality. (going for 17 squad plus 10 replacements, our standard injury list)

Re: 2020 Squad
Why do reserve players have to be full time?
Re: 2020 Squad
most of the fans i talk to centres is the positions they worry about Shenny as good as he as been will be a year older, and the jury is still out on Blair
Re: 2020 Squad
Personally im alot less worried about centre's (and wingers) than I was this time last year.
Feki, Blair, Shenton, Eden
With Matuiti, Claire and Olpherts as a back up
is much better than;
Claire, Minikin, Shenton, Eden
With Egodu and back rowers as back ups!
Re: 2020 Squad
Shenton looks as fit as I can remember seeing him

Re: 2020 Squad
I don’t have a problem with the centres and wingers we have.
I’m more concerned that we don’t have a top full-back. Rankin has a few good games, but he’s not good enough to cause the top teams enough problems in attack.

Re: 2020 Squad
They don't have to be but reserve players are wanting to push for first team at Cas, whereon they are full time. The York players or triallists are what they are.Sharlotiger wrote: ↑01 Nov 2019, 12:26Why do reserve players have to be full time?

Re: 2020 Squad
We don't have a Superleague quality Full Back at the club, haven't had one for 2yrs.
This is not a position to fudge.
Makeshift and 'make does', will always leave a weakness over a seasons duration.
Suprisingly , there doesn't seem a willingness at the club to fix it.
Turner, Eden, Peanut, Rankin and Clare and I may have missed a couple out.
It's not rocket science.
The GB team are suffering from the same problem on the tour by consistently playing people out of position.

Re: 2020 Squad
junior moors and alex foster look to be doing training with the rest of the boys might just have a full squad to pick from time the friendlys come around...

Re: 2020 Squad
I hope Junior comes through pre season and gets fit. He had a bad injury and was in a bad way for weeks. It would be good if he could have an influence in a few games for us. Last season either way?

Re: 2020 Squad
Most players knowing its their last hurrah play exceptionally well. Then we clamber for them to get a new contract and it all goes bits up.
I'd like to see a clear plan from the club and let us know they are retiring and we can give them a season long send off. Benny deserved one and it would have been nice for him.
Re: 2020 Squad
Just listened to Forty 20 on youtube and Scohfield has us down as finishing 4th!
With driving momentum being lost from Millington and Moors and questions about their fitness I think 4th is questionable.
Also the partnership of the halfbacks may not click from day one of the season.

Re: 2020 Squad
I'd have us 3rd if nothing happens injury wise to the two half -backs

Re: 2020 Squad
With a relatively injury free season the lost punching power of the mentioned forwards a centre whats lost his cutting edge with age and a new (but promising) half back what has to settle in, its a fight for 5th for me.
I do hope I'm proved wrong and 3rd would be exceptional in my eyes.
