How old is he now. Not sure if this will be his year to break through. Certainly won't be long though I wouldn't have thought.

likewise!
The thread has got me thinking that there could be exciting times ahead with so many good young prospects coming through.

3076_1671446335.jpg 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:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| McShane and Wheeler, probably the two most over rated young players I have seen in the last five years.
Ones to watch for you guys Stevie Ward, or Jordan Baldwinson.

There's one or two senior figures at Leeds that have got high hopes for Stevie Ward - if the things I've heard about this lad are true then the kid might be the 'one to watch' for next year.

| That's probably the role Briscoe is earmarked for isn't it? IIRC he can play fullback as well, but we're hardly short of options there.

| But do we have an out and out scrum half in the mix? A kid who knows his craft,one who steps onto the paddock and the supporters thinks there's Rob Burrows heir apparent?

He's the Sam Tomkins, Jonny Lomax of the forwards.
Did saints and Wigan pish about with those. Give the kid a run and let him learn the best way.

Over rated by whom? I'm not really fussed how they're rated by the fans, what matters is how they're rated by the club. We haven't over-promoted too many young players in recent years; those that have been given a chance have, by and large, done the job.
One to watch? I'll go with rhinoms and say Clarkson. Has the potential to match Ellis by my reckoning.

By one particular Wigan fan apparently.
Course, the fact one plays for Leeds and the other for Saints is complete coincidence.
How are the Coyle brothers doing these days Rogues, if we want to talk overrated prospects?

982.jpg [quote:1pqtnbtj]Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.[/quote:1pqtnbtj]

I'm not saying I disagree with you but I think you do handle young forwards differently than backs. Your post also implies that Saints and Wigan know how to integrate their youngsters better than we do. I'd disagree vehemently with that. If that wasn't your implication, I apologise.
That said, I hope Ward gets some first team action this year.

I think they intergate the players into the first team well, they're just not able to balance that particularly well with being as sucessful as us

| By all accounts, Brad Singleton was outstanding for Cumbria against England Knights. Obviously he might find a few ahead of him in the pecking order but if he's given a chance I expect him to excel.

That hasn't been a concern till now. With Burrow & McGuire being the age they are any talent produced since them has had to seek a living elsewhere cf Gale, Murrell to name but 2.
Even last season's injury to McGuire wasn't really an issue.
Centre & hooker has been a greater problem but hopefully that has been resolved, only time will tell.
Like others on here I'm looking forward to the continued development of Hardaker & to seeing if Hood & Ward can hack it on the big stage.
I hope that Ward lives up to the hype & will step up when Sinfield finally decides to hang up his boots.
I'd also like to see a prop who can replace Peacock.
