I feel like our success has blinded the fact that the go home factor is still a real deal. Players will stay in large numbers to compete for a flag, and most of ours have, but there will be players who would still want to go home. And if we weren't competing for the flag, it probably would be even worse. This is why our academies are so important, because no matter where we are on the ladder, the go home factor would never be a thing to worry about

Go home is only a problem for those who are not in the blessed realms ... it is there referred to as the come home factor and is a good thing...

Most of the go home factor is maturity.

Go home usually means don't wanna play in the team I'm in.

Most young men love breaking the shackles and the cameraderie of being away from home.

I spoke to a couple of guys who started young at GWS when everyone thought going to GWS was probably the pits and they absolutely loved their time there.
