So before he's played a first team game he's Andy Farrell and Gene Miles rolled into one, no pressure :lol: Admittedly he looks good, and it's rare to see a lad that size run his weight and that offload will cause teams problems. It's hard to tell at that level though, some lads tear it up in academy but don't look particularly special when they get loaned out to Championship clubs. Good news on Swinton staying up by the way, given our relationship with them.


Nail on the head. No doubting he looks like a prospect based on YouTube but Christ almighty let’s give the lad half a chance before we put him up on a God like pedestal and knock him off if he isn’t as good as Andy Farrell, Gene Miles or Ellery Hanley

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

Yes, he was the forward for the reserves although he may also qualify for the academy. The U18's one will bring back many happy memories.



The young back is Joe Robinson, son of Jason who signed his contract per match last night in the South Stand bar.

That's one done, second one I was told last night is a done deal and probably will be playing at Robin Park today for London.

Haven't seen anything of Joe, Brian. Do you know anything about him?

All the good music has already been written by people with wigs and stuff.

He played Scholarship for Giants this season and playing outside of Will Pryce he scored 2 tries v Wigan in their last game in August. He looked pretty promising in that game.
