I recon he is great value at either position. He certainly will be pushing for a first 17 spot. He would fill the gap that gleeson has left at the moment , perfectly well. He also filling in for pat very well.

Seems he will be a star the lad, top game on the wing but he has more to offer for me. He could become a good and think he could cover fullback with ease. Showed a little more than Marsh but he let no one down either. Showing some good promise from these two.

I'd give him a shot at centre next week. He's full of confidence and will easily handle the position imo. He's looks like the long term replacment for a certain number 3 if given the opportunity. I've praised Marsh again in the 1-2-3 thread as he's really been solid in the last couple of weeks but we need to pick our best side available and I couldn't quite squeeze him into that at the moment.

I know some may spit at this but Charnely reminds me in some ways of Chris Ashton - the good parts of Ashton's game, the ability to read a break, supporting the man and the burst of pace, better defender though already.

Similar in stature for sure but actually seems like a decent lad.

I never saw him in the u20s, however watched all his matches for blackpool, and he looked a very good prospect then, I'm glad to see him take his opportunity well, when pat returns he deserves to keep his spot, providing he keeps going which i'm sure he will.

Awesome effort from Josh Charnley. THAT TRY from Lockers' kick and the finish was world class. Many people bag Phil Clarke, but he was spot on there. The pass for Ryan Hoffman was awesome too. Fantastic player.

I see him as a centre in the future, but for now I wouldn't change a winning formula & would give him a few more games on the wing.

Charnley's try reminded me of how Edwards used to kick for Robinson.

I ment he was was everywhere doing right things it can have 2 meanings

Agreed, until Pat is back, then move him to right centre ahead of Marsh.

Played a bit at St Pats with him and he was a centre for 2 seasons and was so effective there, scored and set up bucketloads of tries. Obviously, that was a couple of years ago and Madge has probably seen his full potential and knows where he is more dangerous. The one thing I think could give him a good chance at centre is his strength, hes a big lad for a winger and you could see from his scoots and kick returns yesterday that he made good metres driving and often took a few players to stop him. That strength might not be utilised on the wing. Equally though, hes extremely quick and can exploit a game on the wing easily like he showed for Hoffman's try. Overall, hes a great prospect and worthy of a starting place IMO already. Good news hes on my fantasy team at the moment haha

He had the biggest smile since Gilly on his face yesterday!

If anything i was even more impressed with his defensive positioning and tackling.

He was everywhere last night and some of the things him and the Hoff were doing were outstanding. The relationship between a winger and his 2nd row can be overlooked sometimes, but these two look like they have been playing together for years.

Obviously he aint to shabby going forward either

He's always been a good defender, like virtually all of Waney's products.

Completely agree, just look at how the Hoff went straight to congratulate Charnley before Lockers even put the ball down for his try! As a side note, very impressed with how vocal Hoff seems to be, got be good for the younger players (even though Hoff isn't that much older).
