Really impressed with this kid last night. Ran Goulding ragged and put himself about defensively. He looks physically up to it and although I understand the risks I've seen nothing to suggest he shouldn't be a first choice player next year.

Very solid player, one of the positives of a frustrating season this year. Hope he doesn,t suffer from the one season syndrome as far as development is concerned.
Hope he kicks onto another level next season, a very promising prospect with lots of seasons ahead of him to be a potentional international player.

Wasn't able to watch the game last night but everytime i see him play, he has impressed me.

Yeah we definitely look better out wide with him in it defensively...

He isnt the guickest of blokes, though no slouch, but he is a real handful due to his size.
He is freakishly strong for a teenage player.

The interesting thing is that potentially next year we could play an all British backline with Wellens or Swift at fullback, wings of Foster and Makinson, centres from Turner, Wheeler and Jones, and halves of Gaskell and Lomax.

Well it would seem he is already first choice left centre , the arrival of Turner wont change that as he is a direct replacement for Shenton . Hopefully Brown and the other coaches will be working hard with him to help him kick on and keep improving

He's been fantastically impressive so far but needs to maintain it for next season. I hope he doesn't fade away as so many great teenagers have done in the past.

A lot of talented younger players find the physicality of SL the most difficult obstacle to overcome while in development. As we can all see that isn't the case here and although he has a lot to work on I have higher hopes for him than most of the backs we have brought through recently. If he can improve his skill set he will be a major player in the years to come.

That would be great but unless Foster makes a HUGE improvement in the off season, I think Meli/Gardner would be a better bet to play on the opposite wing to Tommy. Meli has been excellent lately in my opinion.

Shades of Newlove for me when he made that break.

Lets hope he continues to improve..

I've been really impressed with him when we've played you and I can't see how the lad could lose his place to somebody like Jordan Turner who's too inconsistant.

He won't...

Josh Jones has never let us down and with a bit of space he causes problems due to his size and strength. The worry I have with Jones is his lack of pace at Centre. I think he needs a quick winger outside him and we need some pace on the other side to counter it as he's the type of player that needs half a yard of space to push people off.

He showed a bit of pace when he made the break in the second half.

Turner didnt even make the 17 last night due to the form of young Crooks and would be amazed if he played against Hudds next week.Sts are replacing 1 bad 1 in shenton with a worse 1 in Turner.
