| Matty actually played in the u20's against Wire the day after the 1st team game last week, so I would say that means he's fit.

| I'd agree that he's looked a lot more assured in his more recent appearances, and warrants a place in the squad. I think moving Meli to the centres has given us some much needed strike out wide, however, and I wouldn't want to replace him with Matty (or any other member of the squad) unless absolutely necessary.

| I think Dixon deserves to retain his spot after his performance against the Wolfs.

| At the moment i would have Dixon over Ashurst, agreed that Ashurst has improved but for me Dixon reads the game better has better support play and does a lot of work in defence. If these two can go up another level performance wise and develop into stronger players they could be an excellent future second row partnership.

Dixon is a better player than Ashurst and Maggennis will be the best of the three in 2011 IMO.

I disagree, going off this season. Dixon hasn't shown much in attack, he defends very well but so do all our young back rowers. However, Ashurst has shown some good ball skills, and has apparently played at 6 for the reserve side before making the step up, the game away at Leeds stand out for me, i thought he was very good in that game.

Dixon has bust more tackles in 7 less games in 2010, I just see him as the better prospect of the two. The stats suggest he has a better strike rate, carries the ball more and makes more tackles too (although there are other areas where Ashurst is superior).
I could of course be proved completely and utterly wrong and it's nice to have a few prospects knocking about.

I must say I like what I've seen from Maggennis. Looks far more dangerous with ball in hand than Dixon or Ashurst ever do. Those two when compared with Farrel for me are way behind in their development and ability.
Farrel, Ashurst.

I won't be surprised when one of them moves on in the near future, maybe followed by the other if Saints happen to find other more promising lads for the backrow.

| Quote LovesToSpooge="LovesToSpooge"snip.'" I've been mighty impressed by Farrell lately. He [iis[/i a year older, mind (i think), but seems to have taken to superleague very well.
It took jtomkins a couple of seasons to start impressing, didn't it?
McGennis does have a glint of somethin special, though.
