Chris Spur IN!!!!!

Sorry not sure about Wilson , tends to get knocked about a bit by the big forwards !

With regards to Wilson I don't think we have a choice, however I think he earns his place on merit anyway. Yes he's a little lightweight and can make mistakes compared to other forwards in this league but he is very young and still learning. Also he seems to have a good offload game and an understanding with Wilkinson. He'll only get bigger and better as time goes on and more game time will help with his development. Think if we keep hold of him he will be a very good prop in the not too distant future.

Hope you are right & comes on like Mike Kelly.

I'll freely admit in the past I was critical of Kelly and he failed to impress me, however this year I think he has been one of our best without question. Very impressed with him, just shows what can happen if you knuckle down and are willing to learn and work on your game.

What a lot of people don't realise is that this is Wilsons first season against men. He is bound to get nailed a little bit. In terms of game time he has only played against teams at under 19's level. Forwards tend to develop physically around 23. Look at Bowden, kent and even Green for Hull FC. It's generally easier for backs to breakthrough at a younger age. Although he gets knocked about a little bit he wins the floor a lot and has a great offload game. COYD!

Good post and the fact that the young lads from Hull have been signed by PC is a pretty good recommendation and under his guidance they will progress.

Thanks "Donny" for the video was good to see the great tries we scored again particularly the ones on the far side from us.

Well made point by jehull with regards to wilson . I have seen this lad play since he was a nipper along with wilkinson and starling . I must say he just keeps getting better and better as do the other two lads mentioned . He was I the hull fc u19 squad last year and captain . He seemed to stand out from most of the team and always gives it his all . Give the kid a break and let him develop . Obviously PC saw potential in him . He snapped him up before anyone else could get their hands on him when he left Hull

This just came up on the super league show - somehow the commentator confused Wilson for Spurr. What an embarrassment they don't even look alike. May be I'm bitter but I can't help but think more care would have been taken if he was commentating on our Super League brethren.
