Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2508952, member: 1899"] Should have been one of the first changes the commission made. It's just common sense. By making an unrestricted national reserve competition, you can develop the more experienced talent at an accelerated rate and give them the attention they deserve. It'd certainly benefit our club. As I understand it, our NRL contracted players only spend one session with their QRL counterparts and that's only if they're set to represent that club on the weekend. As you can see, it'd hardly be beneficial to say Ben Hunt to go down that route and the opposite end of that shtick is to let him spend more time with that affiliate in which case he's out of sight and you're trusting somebody who is, by rank, at a lesser level than you. By introducing a reserve grade, they could train at the club with their mates who they know and it wouldn't be such a horrible stigma to be dropped. TBH, I think the QRL clubs hate it more than the players do because it disrupts their prep. [/QUOTE]
