Adam Walne definitely should have been in months ago !!!

.

Absolutely no way is Theo Fages any were near ready for a first team shirt yet & any one who as watched the 18's & the occasional 20's game he as played in knows this { apart from billybradshawsmum because she is bias!!!!!!!! }

I agree Fages isnt quite ready for SL. Neither is Evalds.

The players that probably could be blooded from the 20's, in my opinion, without worrying wether they could cope physically and mentally would be:

Jordan Walne 2nd row, Adam Walne prop, Ford centre, Files hooker, Whitehead half back and Dan Brotherton wing.

Hello Adam. Or are you one of his parents?

'Hull FC U20's beat Leeds U20's 36-24 tonight away from home, rearranged after the waterlogged pitch the night the first team played there.' (22-8-12)

Taken from the Hull FC board...anyone know if this is correct?

The result is correct, Hull won not sure bout the score. Which means if we beat Leeds next week we end up second, if they beat us their second were third and we will play each other in the first playoff.

I'm not here to get into an argument (I'm off to Wembley tomorrow so I'm in an incredible good mood

) but someone on the coaching staff clearly thinks Theo [iis[/i ready for the first team and from speaking to several of the clubs staff both coaching and other the impression is he'll get his shot before too long. One man that I'm led to believe is Theo's biggest fan is an Ex-Great Britain international half back, treble Lance Todd winner, multiple trophy winning half back, and his opinion is one I will listen too much, much more than any tittle-tattle on an internet forum.

Time will tell.

This post is not far off the mark. Would say that Theo has got better throughout the season. Probably not ready to play regular at first team level but after giving him a 5 year deal and with only 2 games left he is surely a better punt than Howarth at 7. Evalds would be closer to first team level if he hadn't been stuck on the wing for a decent part of the season to accomdate Towers.

20's KO 5-45pm at Leeds curtain raiser for S/L game, if Salford win they stay in 2nd place & earn a home game in play offs v Leeds, hope to see a few Salford fans in early to cheer them on please.

If you speak to any of the 18's or 20's lads that have stepped up and played first team, both past and present, most will say that it's easier playing for the first team because everyone's ability is higher across the board. You get a lot more protection from your team, and expectations from being a top player in one team to being just a player again takes off the subconcious pressure.

I'm not saying Theo is ready yet but it's a good time to give him some game time. That goes for any of the young lads.
