| Quote: Captain Hook "Showing an incredible improvement this season, played exceptionally well on Friday, a lot more to come as well as his confidence grows I suspect. Could develop into a special player with a bit of luck, which given I had fears he would go the same way as R Evans shows what I know.
(Watch Rhys ram this down my throat tomorrow with a match winning performance).'"
Has a great year this year, I know there are calls for him to move in to the back row, but I feel we would miss him in the centre, defensively he has been good for a while, but his attacking game has really come on this year, looks much more dangerous. |

Who are the potential England centres?
Watkins
Lyne
Newman
Percival
Gildart
Hardaker
I think were all named in Wane's initial England squad earlier in the year (King wasn't included), i'd agree he's up there with the best of them right now.

Great player. I think the team looks better with him in the second row, he plays great at centre or second row but the team is more dynamic with him there because he has far more of an all round game than Hughes or clark. I like the way he tries to cause the opposition problems, he has a cool head and his attention to detail in the tackle wrapping the ball up etc shows his class. I'm glad people are seeing his quality now.

Not that he's not greatly improved since but I don't think that he's really looked back since the Challenge Cup Semi Final V Leeds

I would agree with that. Question marks over Percival’s fitness and Connors in & out form - there’s definitely an opportunity for him there.
King has got better and better each season and has been more integral to the side over the last 12 month, especially as an attacking threat. We all know he can defend well, apart from jumping out the line every now and then, he’s very good defensively - 1 v 1 he is spot on.
He’s been a lot more consistent with his performances this year and it’s at no surprise because of his form, Lineham was our top try scorer before he had his brain fart vs Cas. King isn’t afraid of taking an opportunity and back’s himself to try different things, whether that be offloading in his own 20 or climbing up for cross field bomb. I hope he continues his form and hopefully he can push it a couple notches further when GI arrives next year.

Try ratio of almost 1/3, looks reasonable for a centre.

Watkins looks to be 'semi-revived' by his move to Salford, prior to that he looked well out of contention. Lyne nothing special. Newman very promising but going to miss a big spell now with his injury. Percival a skilful player but looks fragile ( not a good thing for a World Cup squad spot). Gildart is a good player if a bit lightweight to front up against Aus/NZ and even Tongan backs. Hardaker is much better at fullback. Jake Connor not mentioned here, seems to have lost it , I'm afraid. Huddersfield's Wardle looks good to me. All things considered, King can't be too far off an England place. |
