Do not worry we have a few decent halfbacks coming through our youth system.Maybe we will send some on loan or dual next year.

well why are you not using them this year instead of using Wigan's?

I am not the coach ask Betts.

Been serious now Gore and Gilmore have been injured, so that does not help.Lunt has played a few games and Gore.This year Jack Owens,Danny Hulme,Gore,and Lunt have had a few games.7 youngsters with Danny Craven,Houghton and Grady aswell.

It's all about the right development Fred

J20 if you look at the Wigan first team they are not all youngsters under 21, so i think 7 given a chance is good.Others will get a chance as develop in size, and speed with fulltime training.Next year Leigh and Swinton will be moaning about taking our youngsters on dual registration.

Why have second best when you can have players from Warrington & Saints?

anyway this thread doesn't have anything to do with Wignes so back on topic or sod off.

***** Bad language wil not be tolerated on this mesage board any more and your gone*******

***** AUP 2.2 ***** LAST WARNING public this time*******

You brought them up



Any young players will benefit from full time training as Ellis himself, he certainly slotted into Leigh's first team very well as has Mellor here. How old is he btw? Also seems to back the play well which is something Hull FC are missing!

you need to read threads OFF THE CUFF brought it up not I.

Anyway I like the look of the young lad that got the MOM for Widnes. Didn't catch his name but at 16 years of age he did very well.

Jack Owen

How old is he?

Pretty sure Leigh will be entitled for a transfer fee, out of conract or not ?

Ellis is 21 (4/10/89) there will be no transfer fee as he is out of contract

Played well on Thursday......... Mellor had a cracker also.

Hmm...



See Ellis wasn't effected today then

is he the leagues top try scorer?

As an FC fan who's not seen much of Ellis, having read this it sounds like we should be pretty excited at the prospect of him coming to the KC (if it happens). Sounds like he had a big role in your win today too. Is he ready to slot in at SL level, do you think? We're guessing we'll keep Long for another season with Ellis as understudy, but Long's fitness record means he'll probably get plenty of opportunity. What are his main attributes - our biggest miss at the moment is our long kicking game - what is his like? Cheers for any info.

Hit or miss TBH but full time practise and coaching should see it right look through these threads and you will see I post links to all our games on BLIP.TV judge for yourself.

He has a really good kicking game, both long and short, and kicks 40/20's for fun. He looks chunky but has a good level of fitness at our level. Didn't look out of place when we played Catalans a few weeks ago. Not quite ready for a full season at SL level but will definately do a job next year if you use him wisely and don't over play him

I think he is brilliant and sometimes produces inspired kicks and plays.

Wish he would stay with us.

Thanks for the info. Sounds like we've got a good 'un.

I hope Agar doesn't ruin him.

I'd imagine Longy has played a key part in recruiting Jamie for Hull

Signed www.hullfc.com/newsarticle.aspx?n=17348 Let hope he goes well in SL. I look forward to watching him help Leigh win a trophy or 2 this season.
