salford under coach lee spence walked because they can't afford to sign there young lads on, good some good young lads there too

Jamie was a match winner as a kid , unreal , scored tries for fun . I thought he could be the next Jason Robinson when he first came training with me. I hope he has grown as was small but like Billy Wizz.

Sounds Exciting, Hope hes the next one that breaks into the team.

He turned up aged 11 after all his team mates from school said there was a kid at school that single handedly won a school match with 4 tries. I said bring him down !

He won MOM in Yorkshire Cup final at U12s and I played him at hooker. He kept a younger Curtis Jackson out of the team. Jamie also played with Lee Williams and Dean Hadley. Aaron Ollett was also in the team (KR 20s).

I knew he had to grow to the same height as Rob Burrow and as I haven't seen Jamie for 5 years I don't know his height but he has everything else. I think Rovers let him go from their scholarship and he went to Skirlaugh open age.

from the numerous u20s games ive seen this season, shaul never dissapointed, has a quick turn of pace and can leave players in his tracks once in open field

Agree from what ive seen of Jamie in the 20s he has always stood out, pops up in the right places and has decent pace, wether he can make it in super league is a different matter, hopefully he will, maybe send him out on dual reg in championship to get some experience at next level. IMO i think he is a better prospect than Matty Russel (i believe Matty is now 3rd choice f/b at Wigan)

Having re-watched a few games today I'd like to see Mark O'Meley and Martin Aspinwall offered new deals.

I would but I can see reasons (mainly salary cap) for not offering them deals.

I really liked Russel, obviously he is a work in progress, but still i would be happy to have him, and see how he progressed. Fair point, he was suspect under the high ball, but to be fair to the lad he's only 18 and stepped up overnight from playing in the park, to playing with the big boys. Foster is an outcast at Saints but the lads barely put a foot wrong since joining us, indeed i would prefare to see him stay rather than sign Crookes.

Wigglesworth didn't play for Hull RU at the weekend, but Greg Lound, the other kid we had on trail from there did, and I've heard we've offered him an under 20s contract too.

Good stuff, suppose this is the upside to the arrangement at Y.P.I
