In your opinion are any of those three ready for SL, I don't watch any u20's games.

What attributes do ach of them have and which position are they most suited to?

Green physically is the most ready for SL as he is a very big guy and is a athletic prop which is why he plays at 13 for the reserves.

Liam Kent is the 1 who I think personally has the most potential and is your typical 'Gilmour type' wide running second rower.

Cunningham is a workaholic and the other second rower but tends to play more central instead of looking to go wide like Kent.

All 3 of them could step up and give the 1st team a good 30mins no problem which is realistically the best you can expect from them at this stage of their development if they are expected to come off the bench and give somebody a breather.

Cheers Frasier, hopefully before the season ends we can see them get some game time. Agree on the point you made about Lauaki earlier, he needs to seriously improve to get a new deal.

I agree to an extent but i wouldn't be very happy keeping Long next season as I think it is time for him to retire - purely going by his injury record. I would rather take a gamble on a young overseas scrum-half and see if they cut it in SL.

I would seriously consider releasing Lauaki but there are plenty of games left this season for him to show us what he's about. Dowes has really turned it on recently and if Lauaki can do the same like we have seen glimpses of, then he may be worth keeping.

Bottom line for me is if we can't improve the half-back pairing then may as well try and sign a better full-back as it is probably the next best position to improve our attack

phelps is getting better every game, his confidence is growing aswell as his ability as he gets settled

but hes nothing special and been an overseas player for me we need to target someone better in the vain of bowen,minichello ect

News on Phelps' long term future at the club on RH's breakfast bulletin tomorrow.

Personally think Green is ready and was very unlucky not to feature against Oldham. He plays like a clone of Fitz.

Interview with Phelps stating his desire to stay on then?

I wonder if his new background theme on Twitter is a clue?

could even hear his accent reading this

Unsure another big turnover of players is the answer.At this stage i would keep Phelps as our fullback,but would possibly release Lauaki.Add the good possibility Fitz will retire,leaves us with 2 quota places- 6 and a 7 ?
