Centre? Esp if Wardle is going in 2018. Although Sam wood is knocking on the door too!

I think Connors best games have been at fullback or 6

Maybe brierly touted as our fullback unsettled him and now Anderson is gone something else was sorted?

Sam had a great game vs Hull.. Was really impressed with him, in particular his defence. Fonua was probably there best player and he almost dealt with everything.

Agreed, always surprised me how strong and composed he is in defence. I was worried at the start of the game with Brierley and Wood together on the left, but they scrambled well and muscled up against some big fringe players for Hull.

I was massively worried. But fair play to him, he performed much better than many other players from other teams have this year vs Hull's right edge. Also, as you mention, Brierley really got stuck.. Reminded me of how Brough defends.

My lad commented Sam had spiders legs!
He's gone against some big names at Wigan too but he certainly doesn't give the appearance of being fazed by that kind of thing at all. Very composed defensively. He did miss a few tackles but I remember he missed one tackle in the second half and made a massive effort to catch the guy and put him down after.

More like a daddy long legs

Size will come as he matures, but he obviously has the mental toughness and correct attitude to make it at SL level.

connor is too slow for a centre, half back or full back but still half back id like to see maybe long term for brough

sam wood looks very strong in defence

still see murphy and ormsby on that side though (if signed, hull seem to announce signings early...)

Not sure Connors much slower than Murph to be honest as regards centre and hey we played Eorl there ?
De Vere wasnt lightening fast -it was brains and technique that made him special !

One of Jakes main assets are his quick thinking (Saints at Newcastle and his efforts squeezing over in the corner in subsequent matches) - they can compensate for natural pace - so if hes staying its up to the new coach to recognize his qualities /agree where he should be played (with jake) and give him a run in that position (and see if it works and he settles in)

If we`re looking long term -- then perhaps Brearley and young Simpson/ Ellis at halves where theyre not lined up as cannon fodder for the opponent forwards with the former as possible wing cover

Get an established shape and let the lads develop a relationship with the players alongside instead of all this constant musical chairs chop and change that (IMO) has disrupted any consistency throughout the last couple o seasons

Tbf crackers- the chip and change this season has been needs must!
