It rewards clubs who:
- Provide a good junior set up.
- entice former players/juniors back to their clubs.
- Provides old schollar clubs with a an opportunity to get access to former school players
- Stops clubs from 'buying' premierships/their way up divisions.
The question is whether 15 points is too little or too much.
If you can tell any club has got 5 or more guys, never affiliated with the club before who 'just want to all play with their mates' who are all A Grade playes worth 3-4 points, I reckon you're kidding yourself. There's no way to can justify more then 15 without admitting you're trying to buy a flag. Maybe the money could be better spent improving Juniors.
*this is not a go at kilburn, as this is the first Iv'e heard of it. Just an Opinion.*
For whats its worth, I think we played with negative or 0 points on the weekend. And we had a cracking win at The Den! Look forward to the challenge out at Pembroke this week.
I agree turbo, its's prob the only system that encourages juniors back/ or to stay on at the clubs that invested time in getting them to where they are today, get's rid of the club s@ut selling out to the highest bidder.
