Yep- as I've put on the other thread when the camera was on percival taking the kicks he looked really nervous- Connor looked cool calm and collected.

Couldn't agree more watching it again on sky+ after getting home from the match. He scores them, he kicks them and looks like he's played SL for years. Hope his contract is air tight don't want to loose him.

I think young Jake came of age last night, well played young man

belting hand off on manu i think it was too

He is a very gifted player.

That was a very mature performance especially when you compare him to the more experienced, highly paid but under performing Lance Hohoho.

I loved that. He did it to Westerman last week too!

the club have always rated him highly and he is proving them right

which is his best position?!!?!?

I'd personally have him as a starting half with Brough
Grix full back and Lunt and Robbo sharing hooker next season (unless Robbo is leaving)

No room for Ellis for me if he's coming. Connor needs to be worked more at SL level... He hasn't let us down. Special talent!

No room for Ellis anyhow- there's also woody!

I'll stick with what I've always believed 84 ,he's a centre although after last night he would fit in anywhere, he is a "Rugby League Player"full stop.

he would be touted as an England international if he played for certain other clubs.
thought he was brilliant last night, despite having no recognised half backs for 60 minutes he stood up to it very well and was even throwing his weight around with manu,soliola etc!

I'd like to see him line up alongside brough in the halves next season.

Next years spine I'd like.....

1. Murphy.
6. Connor.
7. Brough.
9. Lunt.
14. Robinson.

Is the Ellis signing a given? The way we've finished the regular season, I don't see him getting in the team, with the pivot options we already have.

I was thinking that exact team on Thursday, but maybe a playoff game is not the time to try out a new half back partnership??

Ellis would be behind woody too! Not forgetting leeming who's still waiting in the wings as a specialist hooker.

the problem i see now with jake is that he has impressed in 3 different positions in the first team and has done really well at centre in the 19's, could he become a victim of his own success by not having a specialised position?
would he become a first choice centre,winger,full back or half back or a utility player who can anywhere in the back 3 or in the halves?
whatever happens we need to keep him in the first team if that means senior players miss out then so be it, he has earned his place and should keep it now and others should have to fight their way back in.
