23 year old 2nd row George Hirst. SB's a big admirer.
Wouldn't cost much on the cap, and has huge potential.

So basically the Wingers in our reserves and the academy and the lad out on loan are not good enough, just wow.
Obviously some youngsters might be fine. But in general I would be very careful just how you introduce them to a very tough sport. The simple idea that the next player in the team below just steps up is madness. Academy players are miles off physically. They get crunched or eaten alive ... unless of course you are Alex Murphy. Best if they can be introduced steadily.
Next man up is what Burgess has been preaching. Frank Sargent as been here a while now when his he supposed to get a chance.
