Heard today it was a half back 17 years old. One of the best talents in the country for years!

We've had loads of those

Ripped us apart in the 2 reserve games apparently.

I think it's Morgan Punchard.

Does he?

he only signed a new 2 year deal with Halifax on the 13th June

Maybe had a SL clause.

That's the first thing I said

He looks about 12!

HTW got a hat trick for York today. Looks like playing for York is a really good move

..... and 8 goals.

Just read the Twitter feed and sounded like he was involved in a lot and scored some indivisible try's.

Certainly a good move for him and Hull,

Need to get him signed on and loan he to York for the rest of the year.

A dobbins fan I know reckons they've offered HTW twice what we have and he's signing for them. Does anyone know if he's OOC this year?

He is, be surprised if he leaves with his Dad employed at the club. Not sure why the delay though.

Isn't his dad employed in the JOINT academy?

It's a good point, hull have him the job in the first place and he definitely favours Hull.

Money talks. Maybe Hudgell is super-flush right now.

Jack Ashworth from Saints is the name been banded about . Young Centre / Second row .

More likely to be the Welsh trialist Kyle Evans the former Llanelli and Mosely centre /wing.
Played his second game today for the under 23s and scored two tries
very fast,good footwork,and can tackle

There was a quote from the RL press saying we've signed a young English Centre a few weeks back .

just north of 100kg according to his profile on the Saints site, fits the (B)Radford model.

heard that HTW has been offered a lot less to sign than he was already on and could be moving on don't know where Reece dean was offered less also apparently they where on quite a lot more than the rest of the young lads and are been brought into line there on development money due to them not pushing for first team for a few years yet Dean has decided to leave, hes going t0 Toronto I believe hope we are making the right moves with these guys cause we could lose them and for me it would be a shame there promising but are a way off at the minute tough call

I was told we'd offered HTW £12k and rovers have offered £25k. Probably borlox but I'm sure he's one hudge would love to take from us given he's been touted as our star SH for many years

Agree.... Both Reece and Harry grew up as probably the best young half backs in the country for their age group. Jordan Lilley, who is in the same age year, was nowhere them in terms of ability. Now look where Jordan is! Its only a couple of years ago when all the talk was about building a team based around young local talent who took pride in the club. Look where we are now 2 young vastly talented half backs, who have been at the club for years, touted as leaving/wanting to leave. Why have our young players not developed to their potential? Why do we have to acquire a young utility back from another club? Have we changed emphasis on developing our own to a more open recruitment policy................ At the end of the day going off current performance you cant knock Adam, Motu Radders or Lasty but surely serious questions can be asked of our youth and academy development.

If true, he could get £12k working in Wilkinsons!
