Maybe this will mean that 90% of young talent now WON'T get poached by other teams/ codes. I really really want this to work. We have needed it for almost forever.

This is the best news the club has had in the last 10 years

Fantastic news. I wish we could see the NRLW team back sooner but no doubt that’s not just up to us, and dependent on the NRLs timetable for expanding that comp.

great news for the future Warriors players, well done to all that made this happen

Finally the club will be able to provide 5 years of NRL training and development, rather than relying on Schoolboy Union, and a year of SG/NSW/QLD Cup prior to jumping in the NRL squad.

It will also let the club fully assess juniors over a long period of time, and cherry pick the best. To be a top NRL player it takes a lot more than just dominating school boy sides, character and drive isn't something you can determine from watching junior footy.

Good news, hopefully they get the right people in the right jobs, rather than just looking after the old boys club

It's not poaching when the Warriors overlook players, so you probably need to revise that % down under 50 at least.

Long overdue.

Exactly

The club should be able to put together some 5yr 7yr and 10yr plans now rather than going on signing sprees.
Shit im excited

Ive watched Harold Matts and SG Footy every weekend this season plus a hell of a lot last season. The Junior systems here in Sydney are crazy. The standard is really high. Cant wait for our kids to get amongst it
