Hurrell has looked very good. Most impressive for me though and can't see on list was Dylan Napa.

That would have been amazing had it actually happened icon_rolleyes.gif

R V Sheck and M Escare got my votes.
Sheck is awesome, Escare is one of the most exciting players in SL and was great against the Samoans

If Tomkins was anywhere near the quality of Escare, Milford or Russell, the England team would be in a much safer position defensively for the tests to come, and, come to think of it, offensively as well.

This doesn't deserve a 'bite' but I can't think of Tomkins missing one tackle this tournament.

Josh Mantellato unlucky not to get a mention. Has been outstanding for the Italians. As far as I'm aware he's only made 1 NRL appearance.

He's also 26 or 27 years old.
He has had a remarkable career so far.
He never played elite level juniors. He was a Wyong Roos junior who became top point scorer in the Newcastle comp for 3 years in a row - then he paid his own way to play for Italy and got to train with some NRL firstgraders and improved enough to get a run in the Knights part timers, where he went on to be top pointscorer in the NSW cup for 2 years in a row, signed a contract for the knights full time squad, got one game of firstgrade this year where he scored a try and kicked 3 from 3, all from the sidelines.
In short, he was a park footballer who got a run for Italy, trained hard, improved his game, and finally cracked firstgrade as a 26 or 27 year old.

What no Craig Priestly the American scrum half? not even on the poll table in terms of a completely out of the blue unexpected and not expected talent he has to be on that table

Escare is a throwback to the days of Puig Aubert pity there arent any more then France would be real threat .

"As you travel through life don't sweat the petty things and don't pet the sweaty things" - George Carlin [url:2cg5oc2o]http://twitter.com/AndyGilder[/url:2cg5oc2o] [url:2cg5oc2o]http://fromthewesternterrace.blogspot.co.uk[/url:2cg5oc2o] This week: Four keys to a Rhinos win in the WCC:Transparent Backgrounds/Waldorf.gif



Not a young talent given that he's 26, but a new one to most people's eyes is the USA scrum-half Craig Priestly.

Been very impressed with him.
