Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3663958, member: 1899"] Clubs didn't see enough value in it. Quite often in a player found themselves in limbo and were too good for colts but not good enough for QCup, they'd often play local league. All Ikin has done is recognise that clubs only value 'junior' footy until U/19, so he bumped both Mal Meninga and Cyril Connell up an age group and tried to bolster the local competitions. It's one of those decisions where we won't know how bad the repercussions are until later. I'd be interested to see the data, but in terms of talent, I never felt like the NYC delivered a surplus. The coverage of the competition was abysmal and it was just really expensive pre-match entertainment. I still like the concept and strongly believe every club should invest in a strong U/21s pathway system but clearly most clubs disagree with me. [/QUOTE]
