So chuffed for Connor - if you're reading this well done lad. He spends loads of his "spare" time, coaching my Jake's team, and he's bloody ace with those kids, they all look up to him. Ace role model as well as a great prospect!

It has to be asked, is he any relation to the former Wigan legend?

He's Liam Farrells brother.

Cousin to Andy and brother of Liam he certainly has some great genetics, I hope to see him wearing cherry and white in the future.

The England Academy touring team to Australia will be named on June 19, they will play two warm up games before two tests against the Australians.
Coach David Elliott is hoping Bateman, Currie & Ward are released by their clubs to tour.

I was going to say, it's the same few clubs producing all the talent.

Credit to Warrington - they've really stepped up their academy in recent years. Long may it continue (even if I really don't like them, it can only be good for the game!).

Hopefully Hull FC's new owner(s) follow through on their plans to improve their academy. They should be producing so much more in that captive market.

So which are these "heartland" clubs?

If the cap fits...............

Are you stupidly suggesting Warrington?

Paranoid?

No.

Stupid? Or are you going to answer the simple query I made?
