Half decent centre would do..this lad would score a bucket with along side him..do we have one at the club

thanks buddy

Not read the entire thread, but where does he fit in if charnley and lineham are fit? Not many top SL sides will give him that much space to run anyway.

In a healthy squad, the 2 players out of the 3 showing the best form get the shirts and if they play well then they keep them, if they have a poor match then we have an able replacement on the bench desperate to get the shirt. It doesn't always happen like that but it's always good to have competition for places.

Thanks for explaining basic coaching/team selection to me!

Wouldn't surprise me if he spent the first half of the season as a utility back, covering where there are injuries. But it also wouldn't surprise me if he kicked any of your 1,2,3,4 or 5 out of the side next season. He isn't at that level yet but from the three or four games I've seen him have he's got a lot of potential. I think wing will be a very temporary position for him, he's got a lot of ability with the ball, he can pass. Not sure if he's got a kicking game, but his coach at Swinton says he's a replica of Ratchford at Salford but he's far quicker. He looks every bit a modern fullback to me, but could easily play anywhere in the backs from 1 to 6.

The next “Ned” at 6.

Welcome.

I know what you mean, but what do you think will happen? If he is real quality, hungry and adapts well to the team then he will take somebodies shirt! He may not play on the wing though so maybe lineham and Charnley will be fine.

Fits in the Reserves until ready/injury?

Most likely, he seems like a very good option though. I hope he hits the ground running and puts some serious pressure on the starting backs when he gets his opportunity.

I very much doubt there is a quicker player in the game, his 4 tries against us 2 weeks ago, really put him in the spotlight. Good luck to the lad...
