"I suppose I am looking at increasing the talented players' pool at a senior level and, I believe, the U16s (at school level) is the logically age to put the feelers out in an attempt get the dual coders to jump ship."
Whatever. Agree with you about numbers, but the real issue is getting more numbers in the younger age groups. The bigger the Pyramid base the bigger it is at the top.
PS It takes slightly more than a week to skill up a league player . Good luck to the CCC boys
Yes, but the dual coders I spotted were not dunces as far as union goes. Minor errors like flicking the ball back one handed instead of going to ground and awaiting the next phase to occurred can be sorted out by a word from the coach and simulation of this at training. There were no major issues with any of the dual coders I noticed.
