A work colleague is a neighbour of Connor Wynne and they discussed Mikey Lewis - he is red and white to the core and would only come to us if Rovers were in the lower leagues and there was no other club in for him, he'll never be a Hull player and we need to focus on trying to pick up young talent and developing our own. As for Pryce, he'll definitely get snapped up by a NRL club if he keeps his current rate of development up, he looks far too classy for SL if he fulfills his promise.
I thought Lewis and his family were Hull fans, not that this matters too much these days, most players play for the club that is best suited for their development, no way would Lewis have played as many games for Hull as he has for Rovers, Jack Brown's family are all Rovers fans, but he loves it at Hull. Plenty of other example over the years.
Lewis looks a cracking prospect, not finished yet, but has all the tools to be a very good SL player, Pryce looks a in different league though, probably the best halfback prospect I've seen for years.
You are right, this is why I'm not too bothered that Sneyd is gone and Gale might miss a few games, Hookem can get some game time next season, he has the ability and attitude to be as good as Lewis if given the chance, which he will hopefully get next season.
