Good luck to the lad

Thats more like it. Bring `em in Now I say.

He's 16 year old, he'll get murdered.

Why do people assume this? If your good enough your old enough

Rich Horne was 16 when he made his debut. Played full back away at headingley on his debut. Crunched Darren Fleary in a 1 on 1 tackle in that game too

Does nobody read



He's actually 19

I would rather give a young lad a chance than bring someone on loan its the only way they will learn the game and the way we are performeing at the moment i would drop the whole first team and give all the youngsters a chance

I don't see the big deal about age...

Anyone who spends a little time looking at a modern SL team will realise it's a young mans game. The average age of players is decreasing because the demands the sport makes on the human body. You just can't compete if you physically can't keep up with youth. There are exceptions, as with anything, but they are unique.

Good luck to the lad.

GOOD LUCK Eddie..

Good luck to the lad. I have more faith in his willingness to try than many others who are being picked. We are not going to win at Hull so he is under less pressure - I hope he grabs his opportunity with both hands.

I use this line in town every weekend myself



Good luck to the lad, I just hope the innept buffons around him do thier job and not ruin the lad when he is just starting out.

Congrats Eddie. Young Blood that's what we need also a bit of competition.

Good Luck Eddie hopefully a fullback thats willing to catch the ball on the full.

Quality player. He's 19 btw.

good luck lad hope there is more to follow!

Good player in academy Jonny Youds watch out for him

i have seen eddie play for the academy team and the reserve teams over the last 2 years at full back and on the wing he has always given 100%
a good honest and hard working lad i hope he gets his chance in the first team. i am sure he will be ok
at last the youth policy is paying off for salford lets hope they can keep hold of theses guys who have been at the club quite a while !
and know each other so well so sjhould be able to click and know each others game strenghs
as for jonny youds i am sure his time will come he and eddie combine very well when i have seen these guys play in the same team
lets get behind them in these tough times we are facing and not ruin them and barrack them so they end up leaving !
the youth policy seems to be providing some good talent lets back it up with our support for them !
