Interesting discussion on the School v Clubs. I guess we are lucky here that Waibop will let students have dual registrations to play for school and club.
perhaps one of the reasons why theres been an proportionally high amount of young professionals to come from there? Boyd, Thomas, Rojas and Wood?
You're not the only region that does that. Nelson does as well, and I'm sure there's others. And in recent years the best we've produced are Jeremy Brockie and Kip Colvey so that theory doesn't seem infallible.
