Only aggression I saw from Dudson was punching a centre before he joined us. Kibula was a big girls blouse.

| Comments above re drive and aggression are spot on. Holroyd is a great example of this, more so in defence than attack though. We need at least 2 of our young props to play consistently aggressively and well enough to raise the performances of Musgrove etc.

| If Holroyd improves (and only by a bit) he is going to be undroppable.

He shown the club that he is 100% committed by tuning down a great opportunity i think he will be rewarded for this and he will only improve with more first team opportunities.

Think it’s where he prefers, but thinking Taylor-Wray probably the future for that spot now.

Developing as a winger in the Tommy Makinson mould (Without the squirrel grip thankfully).
He played all his career at full back prior to getting into our 1st team and could cover there again if necessary.
As other posters have said though, CTW is the heir apparent for our fullback position.

He's got so much attacking skill & quick. Very exciting prospect from the (limited) amount I've seen.

| He’s got lots to learn of course but Dufty needs to be as good as last season to keep him out. He looks absolute class.

| I’d go Thewlis at FB and CTW on the wing.
CTW would like Ashton have more attacking opportunities on the wing.
It seems to look more balanced that way to me.
The pace out right if we had Lindop and CTW could be something.

You could say the same about Dufty then as he and CTW have similar characteristics and skill sets. You want your best attacking players to get their hands on the ball as much as possible IMO, so full back is CTW’s position for me as things stand.

I would hope Luke Thomas will step up. John Kear said " he doesn't have a handbrake", and from what I have seen he has the controlled aggression and determination to succeed. Hopefully the coaches will be adding the black art of the prop to his skill set and we will see him making the bench in the coming year.
