I'd say Yeaman is a shout for 'penny has dropped, now to put career back on track' without question, good to see, has all the attributes to be a class SL centre.

Grix is a shout, against us I though Cyril Stacul was very good, Chris Clarkson at Leeds looks to be developing nicely too. I've also got a lot of time for Kopczak at Bradford, think he's a good young forward.

After being a bit of a journey man (Don't stop believing n'all that) I think Brough has been in formidable form, so much so that he's gone from a good buy for a mid table team, to a mature play maker for a side pushing for silver. Add in the fact he's now being tipped as England first choice, he's come along way from the start of last season with Wakey and Scotland.

Seen a bit of a briers esq rise in him. (Insert Penis Joke here)

This is one I am struggling with slightly, I know he got in the team of the month and had a few good games, but I actually think you were probably right initially, from what I have seen of him, he seems to lack the ball handling skills and decision making ability to make it as a SL centre....

Hope I am wrong.

As for most improved, I would agree that Danny Brough has looked excellent this season.

What I've seen and read of him so far... Rangi Chase seems to have come a long way from last year. But is this due to him improving as a player or Danny Orr giving him a bit more freedom and taking away some of the responsibility?

James Roby for me. Pains me to say it being a Wigan fan, but he has progressed from good to excellent. I thought he dipped in form after winning MoS a few years back, but is now playing at a better level than when he won that. Seems that KC retiring has actually improved his game.

Defo my tip for MoS this year on current form.

Robys always been quality though, there can't have been many people doubting that.

Chase looked quality last year as well, its just the rest of the team "was" playing better around him.

I would have gone with one of the Quins lads but they've just capitulated now unfortunately. Scott Grix IMO now, come from a complete backup + utility player to looking like one of the best FB's in the league.

Jamie Foster from Saints!

its hard to look past scott grix.

Sorry guys Brett Hodgson for me as been a revalation...

How many fans of other clubs give it the you must be mad sighning a over the hill player at fullback,Blah,Blah,Blah well i think the missing piece of the jigsaw is complete now,Keep up the good work Brett steady as a rock.

Foster and the Grix brothers all come on leaps and bounds

Chris Bridge

Alot of daft suggestions on this thread. Scott Grix is the only really plausible one so far. You can't really suggest anyone who has previously played to a high standard. Or really any youngster who is only just breaking through.

Surely it has to be someone who has been around for at least a full season already and never really stood out consistently but is doing so now.

Luke Gale is my additional suggestion to Scott Grix.

Scott Grix, Cyril Stacul, Paul Sykes.

Surprised Matty Blythe hasn't got a mention?

He was the main guy I was referring to when I mentioned Harlequins.

Must be a joke....please

You are a cruel, cruel man, sir

By SEB's definition not a most improved player ( as he's just breaking through,) but has any one else seen Paul Johnson's stats at Wakey?

I know stats don't tell the whole picture but based on those he's having a cracking season!

P.Johnson first full season. Played every game at prop. Scored a couple, been solid as a rock and charges it in with some meaning. Has a look of Graham at sts for me and one to watch.

Also Moriano signed from hull kr played handful of Sl games. Cemented a starting spot scored 5? Trys and probably signing of season at wakey ( in negotiation for new contract) both british!

From other teams. .

Grix as when he left wakey he was an average Joe master of none player.

Looks to have come on leaps and bounds and found his position.

Francis Meli in all fairness he has improved a hell of a lot! As a Wire fan thats horrible to say!

Would imagine the vultures will be circling for Moriano and Johnson.

Dont remind me.

chris Dean another top lad along with Murphy, howarth. Be sad if the vultures get an opportunity to swoop. Lot of good young Brits now at wakey and they have done the club proud on field and are developing well. Enjoying this season thoroughly so far.

Back to topic. Has to be Grix.

Gary Wheeler
Kallum Watkins
Joe Arundel ( not most improved but easiest been the best young player in SL so far , phenomenal defence and not a greedy centre)
Kirk Yeaman
Tom Briscoe
Craig Huby

the list goes on ...

Is there a thread for best newcomer

?

Paul Sykes !!!!
