And your comparing a 19 year old to one of the most complete players in a generation in Sculthorpe. Were in serious danger of a Gaskell mrk.II here...

And brown and the other coaches at saints disagree with you, they deem him not ready. That doesn't mean he won't ever be, but throwing him in at the business end this year will do far more damage than good. As would playing him against "lesser teams" earlier in the season because he's not ready. Our junior 7 is Hewitt, if your going to champion throwing a kid in, then that's the name you need to be calling for.

He had to get the chance to become that complete player tho , and for Wigan if they wer down to the last body's they would put youngsters in , oh and most play in the original positions

Jack Hughes is/ was a centre in academy, is a second row in first team, Powell and Williams are both halfbacks who have played hooker this year, just to name a few Wigan kids playing out of position this year.

He will get his chance. It's not now or never. It might be next season or a few after that, but to get it he needs to impress the right people, which he hasn't done so far. That doesn't mean he won't do, but by your argument every player in the academy should play super league to "get his chance" but it doesn't work like that.

Jack Hughes wasn't a centre in the academy.

That's a good point mate, I've seen him play many many times and you've read about him. Your not really in a place to comment

You said he doesn't stand out, he pointed out that he often gets named as a stand out in match reports (maybe the writer sees more of him than even superfan St Pete?) and opposition supporters.

Perfectly fair "place to comment."

Ha! Says the man who felt perfectly justified in arguing about Masoe's performance against Hudds based on some stats he read!

BOOM!

Well I'll go fetch my handbag.......

This is quite entertaining actually.

Sarcasm girl. That's why I out that. It was a little joke.



Boom

Thanks for the compliment

I must only be a superfan to you when you pm me for info ey.

Obviously our super coach agrees with our superfan as he can't get a look in when we've got lance, Walsh and Wilkin out!

Also, maybe our super u19s coach agrees with superfan and super coach as he's not even playing in the halves at u19s level.

St. Pete is right he's not , been playing 9 and 13 ,but he can play in the halves
