Saints have a awesome talent in our hands called Mark Percival. The lad was called up the first team last week to train with the players, despite only being 17.
Very classy centre who as terrorised every defence this season and scored 2 on Saturday to win his home town club Widnes.
As much as I admire your enthusiasm on the matter, what you have failed to mention purposely or not is that Percy is part of the 'Jets' programme, in which 6 of the 16/17 year olds from the academy are asked to train with the first team coaching staff and on rare occasions the first team players. Not to detract from someone who is a talented player but lets get things into perspective and not put a lot of pressure on a kids shoulders before he's even made it into the reserves.
All i was trying to say was that it would be nice to ease him into the first team and hopefully he can be an established first team player at 22.Instead of playing week in week out at a young age, in an injury depleted side picking up injuries and playing out of position.Unless this guy is another Roby or Tomkins lets not rush him.
