Cautious thumbs up from me. Won't go down well with some but I reckon he's done ok in a team that's played some of the poorest rugby I can remember.

Deserves an improved deal will not have been on much money for a full time pro athlete.
Who is the fastest rhino in the squad?
Is ash the fastest in the team?

I'm pleased for him and think it's a good signing. He's been a usefull addition to the squad although I do question slightly a 4 year deal after the Golden and others experience, would of thought 3 would of been better for us

He wouldn't have had 100 apps at this stage of his career in the Sinfield era squad ,but considering how we have declined a new deal fair enough, although 4 years ?

He deserved an extension for his commitment and effort this year. I hope 4 years is not too much; he's still got lots to prove, time to develop, and will no doubt be pushing for an England call up, but he still has some way to go IMO.

Ryan Hall-lite, or Francis Cummins-plus? We can't afford superstars in every position.

I'm not sure about 4 years but he seems to have matured a lot as a person as well as a player, he seems to speak with a lot more knowledge and authority when in interviews, when he first came on the scene and I mean this with the greatest respect he always sounded a bit dim, but that was obviously lack of experience and confidence, so fair play to the lad

Not sure about 4 years but he definitely deserves a new contract. He’s been one of our best players this season. He’s near the top of the try scoring charts despite playing for a poop team. I know his defence has been criticised, but hasn’t he had to cover for his centre? And he’s pretty quick too-there’s not many others in our team.

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

Pleased for the kid, he deserves a new deal, but like others I think 4 years might be a bit long.

He’s not Ryan Hall, but he’s no Joe Vickery either. He will improve and already knows his way to the line.

Used to be good for at least 2/3 knock ons a game, hands like cows t1ts.

Much improved on that aspect this year. Steady, safe signing, if slightly uninspiring.
