Quote: Loyal Saint "Another poor result for our u18,s we lost 34-32 against Leeds away. That twice in a row we've conceded 34 points.
Plus point is that josh jones scored 4 trys our England youth captain is a class act. He is still only 16. I think that's 7. Tries in 3 games for him. Very classy centre.'"
It's always difficult with the junior levels (18's and 20's) because you are never sure of the relative ages of the teams.
For example Saints may have had mainly 16 year olds in their teams whereas Leeds may have had the majority if their team 18 years old.
A couple of weeks ago Wigan played most of their second year lads (U18's) v Salford and and racked up 78 points.
A week later they played most of their 16 year olds and just beat Wire. As we have said many times it's about development at this age but the games do need to be competitive.
Will, that defeat make it difficult for Saints to make the top half of the "split"?
