| I watched the 2nd half of the match before the leeds game and thought Regan Grace was outstanding (young Kallum Watkins lookalike). He scored a length of the field try with no one near him, a flyer
Great potential

| Kind of wish we could bring a young Allan Hunte forward from the past.
A stone-cold killer when it came to pulling the trigger. Great hands. Superb under the high ball with what the NFL pundits would describe as "hang time".
He was MADE for today's rugby.
Kevin McCormack would have prospered, too.

I wonder if he'll be as good as Dan Brotherton?
As for being a Kallum Watkins lookalike he's only looks about 5' 6"

I always like to see your views on young players coming through, and more often than not are right.
But sometimes, like this, you let yourself down with utter tripe like this. It was the same the other week when you couldn't find it in your heart to credit saints on their academy win.
The lads doing very well when you consider it's his first full season at a level of any note. He gets tremendous height when collecting high kicks so he's obviously a good athlete. He's the quickest player I've seen at academy level and definetly one to watch.

Still think the excruciatingly average Thornley was a devastating blow to RL when he went off to union?

| Short lad of mixed ethnicity?
Eddie will be calling him "the new Jason Robinson" within moments of his debut.

You want to drop a quality player like Swift for a player you've never seen because someone on a forum said that he scored a decent try?
I really like Swift. Belting player, fast, safe under the high ball, just needs some chances to put away.

Swift is to redex as Turner is to you
Hope the lad makes it - he's one of the Welsh contingent isn't he? If so I remember KC being very complimentary in an interview a few weeks ago

Has Swift been with your Mrs or something? It's all you ever post about. Repetitive and boring.

Far be it for me to blow someone else's trumpet but - at least his option is realistic, not to mention financially viable for the club and the sport in general.
For someone who never ceases tooting his Rugby League bona fides - you're really going out on a limb with this one.
I mean, precisely what was it about NRL man-mountain blockbuster, Shaun Kenny-Dowall, that made you think he might be a better solution at centre than Jordan Turner?

I agree. Much in the same way that I'd agree Greg Inglis would be a better option than Tommy Makinson. But the chances of acquiring either are slim to say the least. In any case, the club (not to mention the game) cannot sustain wage inflation in the context of the salaries NRL players are currently paid.
It's no co-incidence that since clubs have been forced to tighten their belts we're currently producing good quality youngsters at a far higher rate than at any point over the last forty years.

| The other Welsh player is centre Calvin Wellington, he looks more like Watkins. Tall, lean & athletic.
