Great news. He looks solid and dependable.

Could do with bulking up to help himself in defence, but I have been impressed with his step up this season.

Pleased we've resigned him - he's starting from a very good base for a 19 year old in that he has good hands, makes decent yards and has excellent defence.

Can anyone who saw more of him in the academy comment as to whether we can expect any line breaks / offloads as he beds in and fills out, or is that not his game?

His line running is very good at this level. A bit of added size and he could be a direct replacement for Glass Jaw Gilly.

Well done Matty. He's been a great addition to the team this season and has worked hard.

This lad will be a legend at our club, and as for his lines of running they are awesome, remember Leeds at headingley!!!

Not saying he runs poor lines, just that he's not a line breaker. . . .yet?

He does remind me of Gilly though, if he reaches that level we'll all be very pleased.

Whoa there nelly.

That'll come, like I said, he could probably do with a bit of extra size, adding power to his running. His vision for a gap is there, it's just about honing it.

Bit early for that, but I'm glad he's resigned with us.

Hi Matty's Mum

good news

What I like most about the kids coming through at the moment is that they all seem to have terrific attitudes to the game.

Credit to Mike rush and his team, they're obviously giving these lads really good foundations to kick on from - it's all about being willing to work to improve.

rember that line he ran against wakefield went straight through them which set up the try for leon pryce i think.
think he has a good future at the club.
hope we see a couple of the youngsters this week want to this jamie foster.

Your nearly as bad as St. Conroy with Matty Smith. You and Jamie Foster.
