As a whole we are struggling for quality fullbacks, Welsby as a whole is the best we have. There’s Thewlis at Wire that’s played there abit and Will Pryce at the knights (making debut this weekend). If Jowitt was to toss his hat in the ring it would be next year with hopefully the best quality side he’ll of ever been in. His defence doesn’t let him down slightly it’ll let him down massively at international level. For me the best fullback in the world is Dylan Edward’s, his defence is equally as good as his attack, he’s just quality.

Championship bias perhaps?
After all, there aren't any other Champ players in the squad either is there?

Exactly my point. However you say it, Wakefield are an unfashionable club.
It's not that they are picking on us, but Max is currently playing part time players so isn't going to be viewed the same as a Super League player.
Same as when we were in SL. It's harder to show your worth if you are always in a dog fight and never playing in the big cup or end of season games.

Hopefully we'll get him that chance, but I very much doubt we'll have changed hearts and minds by next mid season international.

No worries, although tbh, you didnt make it that clear....

I've being saying to my family for a while that Max is a superb player. If you swap Max and Welsby everyone would be going on about how good he is. Both have flaws in there game. Max has a passing game that eclipses Welsby, but Welsby is more destructive ball in hand. Neither can defend for toffee.
