After a loss to Cas, someone can always be relied upon to seek a scapegoat.

Jowitt is still young and has had limited game time.

Before Grix came along I'm sure Max played for a couple of seasons without making a tackle. he's had the chance & to be honest & at 21 he he's played that position probably all his life he should know what he's doing.
Some players don't make it & he's one He probably could help a championship club as a second fullback or a league one club as there main fullback I really don't know what people are holding on to. The truth he's signed three year deal the same as we gave Owen is that naivety on MC's part

Weren't a current top 4 super league club after him not that long ago.

If so, Max cant be that bad a player surely.

Still young, still learning, in what is, in my eyes a specialist position.

Give the lad a break folks

Jowitt played one season before Grix signed, other than this year his appearances have be sporadic since. He may not make it but at the moment IMO he's on a par with Grix and can get better.

Time will tell, but anyone expecting us to sign the next Billy Slater are going to be majorly disapointed. Those kind of players don't sign for us.

Food for thought, we have got to fifth place, potentially for two seasons on the bounce, with these 'sub-standard' fullbacks. That's not bad going.

For my money Max Jowitt is the future he is learning all the time and I have no doubt with the right coaching become a top quality full back.
If makes me laugh when Trinity fans say we can push for the top 4 with our budget and finish higher than who Sts Wigan Cas Wire
Added to that next season Leeds Hull FC Catalan will all be stronger
Let’s get real a top 8 finish is an achievement in its self.

The positions we really need to address are front row and half backs x 2 if Hampshire is going

With all due respect to the following
Huby way past his best
England Too injury prone
Hirst just not SL standard
Baldwinson not SL standard

Kirmond injury prone time to go and we have cover already

Miller inconsistent needs real competition for his place

Number 7 the real missing link and has being for 3 seasons

The fact is Trinity punch well above their weight every season and without stadium development that sadly I cant ever see being delivered we should enjoy what we have while it lasts because without it our super league days are over.

You remain as ridiculous and boring as ever.

Bring back Gary Spencer

Why? So he can be roundly criticised for his lack of pace too?? He may have been as safe as the Bank of England but I can't see that he would be any better than Max in terms of Fullback play these days. The game has changed a lot since Spencer.

I can’t beleive anyone would seriously say that QLT, as nice a bloke as he is, is either good enough or physically up to a full year of SL rugby.

I was a fan of Mamo when he came over, as he sparked Hudds revival last season but since then he's been very mediocre and has been found to not be able to tackle or pass the ball, which is why he's ended up on the wing!

It's the same poster who wanted us to,ship Jowitt and Johnstone off to Fev, go figure.

Plucked up courage to ask.
Who is QLT ?

Here Here hes shown nothing! Decent back up to a quality full back.

Yes cos that is a exciting meaningful post. Why come on here and add that.

Full back is a position where any mistake is multiplied in severity because it would probably lead to a try being scored. It is much like a goalkeeper in football who are subject to the same scrutiny that is not placed on other players.
Jowitt is not the best in SL but he is definitely not the worst, they all have their bad days.
The games I have seen with the exception of St Helens I think he has played well doing everything expected of a full back. He is the immediate future so I would suggest you get use to it.
