Who the lad who’s been pictured with marsh today on social media. I want to say he’s the young prop coming through. Looks like he’s got a bit of size on him. Doesn’t look tall but maybe in mould of a younger Flower

Not sure what point you are trying to make (if any) i was merely pointing out to a previou poster that they have made changes to encourage try scoring, so not sure what your response is about.

Harvey Makin. Really impressive when I see him a couple of times on loan at Barrow. Similar size to Flower and runs the ball in like his life depends on it.

Harvey is another product of the all-conquering St Judes team who played alongside Junior. Another great kid.

Great to hear hopefully he will kick on as well as Harvie Hill. If we can keep hold of them we’ll have a great young set of forwards

He reminds me more of a young Andy Platt.

That is true but it doesn’t mean it’s the better product as it’s not and plenty of people inside Rugby Union are panning the current product.
League has zero chance to ever compete on an international stage, some top Union playing countries play zero league, Australia League is bigger, PNG too, maybe some of the pacific islands it could become bigger but that’s it, the club game in England I would say is quite similar in stature but we will never compete on the international stage imo. We maybe had an angle to even the playing field slightly with refs/video refs being way over zealous in Union (decided the World Cup) but with these new rules being brought in by the RFL I think we’re just following.

I dont disagree but the steps forward international rugby has taken are massive, the last two world cups have shown Samoa png Tonga as genuine challenges for th top 3 sides. also some of the smaller nations have massively improved like Lebanon Japan. if we can continue to improve internationaly and the union spectacle continues to struggle then we can close the gap on exposure. I just dont think the rofl or super league really do much after a World Cup or international test to promote the game. do we think the improved viewing figures and attendances have nothing to do with the greta world ciup we have recently hosted ?

Probably one of the smartest signings for 2024 imo. Very, very good cover to have around the squad and balances us out nicely. Injuries are part and parcel of the game, so I'm sure we'll see plenty of him in 2024.

With Cust/Shorrocks no longer at the club, it only takes one injury to Field or French and he's first choice halfback.
