I see Chris Moore - played in county final two years ago for Yorkshire is playing against Wath 2nds today.

Must be a safety issue when an experienced level 4 is propping against lads that are probably level 10 at best. Thought more of Heath.

Do we know what the ruling is yet about movement between teams?

Id love that experience but by gum I feel for his opposing prop. A ever constant figure in their first team!  Shame clubs do it.

I'd rather be in t'sunshine!

Apologies to Harrogate today - I wrongly assumed they would squeeze in a couple of 1st teamers in search of their first win but apparently not.
North squeezed through 22-19.

The only reason someone that plays a majority of first team rugby will be playing twos is for game time or they're not selected for the ones.

Case in point Chris Moore, not in the squad for the last two first team games, so playing twos today - thats how clubs should work. Heath aren't chucking him in to win the game, but to get game time after not playing. No affiliation with Heath either.

Cant see any of the clubs further up the leagues using yorkshire two for anything more than to developing players at a better standard than merit league rugby

If its a FR and they are short then its allowed.

Hello all. Longtime since I commented.
Really good to see plenty of folks commenting.
I am an ex Sheffield rugby player and coach. Looked after our 2s when I couldn't walk anymore. Don't know much about rugby (unlike Backrow Bandit), as was more of a kit man/driver/picker upper.
Lots of love xxxx

I think you're all missing the point. Genuine Y2 teams are not allowed to 'loan' level 4 players. So why are there different rules for teams that are in the same league?

Morgan very quiet on here as his own team and his own new league structure crumble in unison.
