Im not as big a fan of Trout as others are i think he looks a bit slow but he has some talent a decent offload and has a good step.
Holroyd is still a kid but if he was thrown into the 1st team on the bench he would cope for 10 mins or so easily. He runs so powerfully he really takes some stopping. I know Super League is a massive step up on 19s rugby and for a kid so young it would be a huge ask but ive no doubt in him at all.
As ive said previous the hooker Corey Johnson probably isnt quite ready to step up yet but hes better than Brad Dwyer now and id rather see him on bench than Dwyer. I hope they dont ruin Johnson by making him bulk up.
I would agree with all that, except that Dwyer can offer us a bit of flexibility in the forwards rather than just hooker, as he is physical enough. Although, that said, Johnson is also an outstanding half aswell as hooker, if you looked at it from that point of view.
Alex Sutcliffe is the most ready replacement for the first team, and I would have him at centre before Keinhorst, and in the back row long before the likes of Walters. His major problem is the lad can't seem to get a break from the injuries he keeps getting.
