That is great but I also don’t think the Reds are lacking in that area?
95% of the squad have come through QPR, Reds Academy etc.
I actually think our recruitment needs to have a broader scope going forward.
I absolutely think there is ways to improve the Academy to Senior connection, just look at some of the academy players who have been pinched by other regions who would be better then those who earned Reds contracts. The fact 95% of the current squad is from QLD pathways doesn’t mean they were the correct 95% promoted.
Also, improving the academy pathway further and broadening the recruitment for those roles/position that can‘t be filled from the Academy aren’t mutually exclusive concepts.
