He should be a French International now. He's already better than Bosc. Seriously, this kid has been a standout player all season behind a beaten pack. Give him a chance now, he definitely won't let you down.

If we don't sign another hooker I think Theo could figure as an interchange hooker next year whilst offering cover at halfback. I think Fages could be very effective in the hooker position both running from dummy half with his speed off the mark and and also having good handling skills.

I don't see him as fullback.

I think sadly Theo and the other younger players missing out is the downside of our rapid evolution.Ultimately I can only see these youngsters slowly drifting away from the club as the ready-made players keep coming in and limiting the chances of the young ones who have already tasted regular Super League rugby

I don't because I think their development will be better around a better quality squad and a more professional environment. For instance take the Walne brothers and Hope, surely they are going to learn a lot more from being around the likes of Morley and Hock etc. You could say the same about Theo working with Chase and Smith.

Another young player I'm expecting big things from going forward is Jon Ford our England academy centre who's currently doing well for Oldham on dual reg under Scott Naylor.

Theo will be a Salford player for a long time yet, or at least until he decides he wants to leave. As has already been mentioned, he already is the best French half-back and had he been playing for a top 6 club this season he would have won best young player etc and received all kinds of accolades.
