Max "Came of age" today. Very good display. He MUST keep his place. As for Nosey Parker, I've never known him to be right yet.

He has proved today that he can tackle one one one, and very well too.

As for the passing, were only talking a split second here. This could be lack of regular game time, really since 2016, and can therefore be improved.

Well deserved Max, and here is to many more in the red white and blue

Signed a new three contract with who?!


His one on one has improved no end but seems more hesitant in attack now. Still this prolonged chance in the side will hopefully see him get the lions share of game time at fullback in the future rather than stagnating on the side lines.

With us hence the hope his is right this time comment

Max as always been a good player and will only get better with game time ,have trust in players and have a go at coaching the best out of them then you will be rewarded, the big word though is coaching.

If he has, I for one will be chuffed to funk.

IMO max is head and shoulders above grix in one on ones. Saved a try every game I've seen him start recently. Grix shouldn't be getting near the side until max needs a break or form slips.

Think max is still work in progress and will strengthen all facets of his game over time ,and make a quality fullback
Grix on the other hand has had years more experience of the big games, so nice headache for coach to have when both fit .
Max has the speed and his skill levels will only go up.
Grix has the better rugby brain for now and the guile to still be a threat at fullback .

Hope this is correct.
Said all along that players like Max are our future.

I thought he was outstanding yesterday - apart from the kick out on the full, he never really put a foot wrong; and the 1 on 1 tackles were as good as you'll see.

He's still not quite there in terms of attacking play - but I think that's an issue of game time and confidence; he showed some flashes of it - for example the cut-out pass that Johnstone fluffed near the end - but all in all, a very accomplished performance.

Did Jordy enjoy his trip to Toronto?

Text me happy dads day

but not home till this afternoon so will get to know more then, playing with a dead leg from last week. Watched it on Premiere, did ok but can’t do much more against a wannabe SL side with part timers.

the two one on ones were great to see, think wire read our plays well when we were attacking their line when the ball went out the back to Max they were quick on him to stop him getting the ball away. Brown and goodwin did it a couple of times to be fair

Thought Max was man of the match yesterday, improving with every game now he can string them together week after week, especially defensively. Two great one on one trysavers yesterday.
I would like to see him accelerate through some of the half gaps he managed to create yesterday.

I thought that - and someone else mentioned earlier - he looked a bit indecisive at times; his big advantage over Grix, and probably his only one right now, is speed - if he went for some of the gaps he created, there'd be breaks on that could open up the defence.

Great news Max. 3 year deal. Excellent!!

On Trinity TV

Great news. Well done to Max for hanging in and big thanks to the club for rewarding him.

Personally would've shipped him across to a championship for some money whilst he's young.

Great news, especially following his performance yesterday, which was right up there.
You have to be pleased for him, after having to be very patient, due to Grix form, he looks to be taking his chance and with a decent run of games, he should keep on improving, although , he wasnt far of a 10/10 performance yesterday.

Excellent news. I think Max has a very bright future ahead of him!

He also pulled off a binder against Widnes.

He definitely had an issue in that department but the yip looks to be going.

He’s not the finished article but he’s greatly improved an important part of his game.

What Championship side would pay a transfer fee?
Come to that not many SL clubs pay transfer fees!
Due to the injury to Grix, Max has his chance and is taking it, his contract may represent excellent value for money and with Hooley also coming through, this is what we have to do, have faith in our junior players, who cost a lot less than imported players from other clubs.

great news!!!Always great to keep your young players you have bought through and he is getting better and better.
