Thackerays brother was bigged up a lot though, although not as much as Tommy Lee who was getting tons of comments from the likes of David Waite

barrie mcdermott mentioned on sky the other week that lee crooks had told him about reece lynne,and that he was potentially a class act to watch out for.let's hope fc look after these kids,and don't flog them to death!!

has anybody spotted a potential home grown scrum half for the future,i cannot believe that with the amount of junior rugby played in the city neither ourselves or rovers have unearthed a little jack russell type snappy tw*t that can be groomed into a class half back.

Lee Williams looks excellent when I have seen him in the under 18's and when he played for Skirlaugh under 16's.

He certainly has potential to be a great 7.

Danny Houghton

So - perhaps and I mean perhaps we have Lee Williams who has just finished as an under 17 this season.
Where is our U18 U19 U20 U16 scrum half ??????????

Danny Houghton played all his youth at 6 and we play him at hooker.
Steve Crooks was a prop when playing.

WHERE ARE OUR 7s ? ??? Lee Williams has 50/50 chance at best and I don't read/hear of any other 7s - am I wrong - if so GREAT

Reece Lynn, without putting too much pressure on him, will come good im sure. Hes similar to Leon Pryce. Spent his youth days at Hull Isberg and Mel Harman was tipped off about him a few years ago as 2 other clubs were sniffing round.

From there age group Tommy Lee, Scott Moore and Thomas Coyle were all tipped by many respected names in the game to be world class stand offs or halfbacks, at he ages of 21 Lee and Moore have both had to change positions to get regular SL games, they are both doing well especially Moore but still not what many expected, while Coyle was at Oldham last time I looked, Danny Houghton was tipped as a great 7 when he played was younger and im sure there are many other examples at other clubs, we just have a problem in this country of turning potential in to world class players when it comes to 6s and 7s not just Hull, Id even be surprised if any of the likes of Eastmond, Tomkins or Myler who are already first team players turn out to be real top class halfbacks.

Our kids haven't had a decent scrum half to learn from for years

Jordan Lee

i agree, regarding Mel, hes got a good relationship with the bloke at Isberg therefore gets all the info he needs to know....

without a doubt, the hottest property this city has seen since lee crooks imo.

rattling the trys in already
