Never heard anyone class Dewsbury or batley as Wakefield unless they don't know the area and just see the post code. It bugs me that some people think us cas & fev are the same place just because it's all under wakefield council, makes for good derbies though both pro & amateur not much love lost

Outwood grange my old school late 80s Nigel wright r goddard in my years team I played for and every year seem to produce players who make it pro

majority of outwoods current national champs are signed on with leeds so wakey missed boat there, wakey take kids from cas aswell and have had lads from hudds too so its swings and roundabouts, we have lost players to leeds, bradford and warrington so its not wakey who get raided

few of wakeys new young signings



jack anderson from hull played for shaw cross ( kirklees )

ben warrilow form warrington played for newsome ( Kirklees )

luke metcalfe from fev from cas

brad day from leeds played for hunslet ( leeds )

cameron leeming from leeds



none of those from wakey, so you are doing same as everyone else



for the record i like wakey and want them to do well but i dont agree with the story that all other clubs do is steal your players

More youngster play RL in Wakefield than Huddersfield that's all I'm saying

i agree with that and its something that needs to change, like i said i dont hate wakey i just get a little tired of a lot of your fans making out all we do is steal your players, for what its worth i think you have recruited well this year and you have definatley brought some very good young players in that in 2yrs time should be pushing for your first team, day, anderson and warrilow are all england youth internationals and wakey have done well to get them to come. hope you get top 8 next yr

Deighton old boy, came thru the same side as Richard Lopag





Simple fact is there are more junior set ups in Wakey, always will be, we're finally starting to see a steady influx of juniors coming thru now, my only gripe is the Giants wont let them play thru the winter, Newsome have some right talent at 16/18's on the touchline every saturday.

pay as you play players in the u18's can just not the ones on contract

It was needling away at me that one!



Shame Deighton have folded now. It would be good for the area IMO and there is untapped potential.

Not bothered who Hudds sign its who Wakey sign that matters to me.If a player aint happy or cutting the mustard then let them go would sooner have a side of happy average joes than a side of unhappy who some think stars.

Unjlucky for you you'll have a side of unhappy average Joe's

Lets say its not encouraged
