Welham was outstanding for me up to the last quarter when he started dropping off tackles and his attempt on Ryan Bailey in the lead up to their final try was terrible.

There is no doubting though that he has tons of potential, lets hope he keeps his head straight and listens to the right people. If he does he could turn out to be top class.

i think oppositions have sussed him out, they did after the first game last season. hes big and strong but cant do much as defenders are on him as soon as the ball hits his hands, he did look rusty last night too

and yes his try looked fine too me.

i was suprised he got caught from there too

Is Yeaman a winger then


or just a greedy person.

When walker is fit, I wouldn't be surprised to see webster take colborn's wing place. welham is developing well (for a ginner), but he's never going to win a foot race with smith

but Colbon looked very good last night, but a Walker/webster pairing could be very good too

I'd be inclined to sit him out against Saints, we need to bring him on slowly.

The missed tackles will always happen with young players. Welham has played well enough to earn the centre berth and he will progress into a top player.

I also thought Welham had an excellent game, Jake seem to lose confidence when he caught a arm in a tackle on his nose, he did not seem to want to run at defenders after that.

I would pick Welham at centre above webster anyday of the week

Not good enough and certainly not quick enough. You can get by on enthusiasm for so long, as he did for the first half, but when the big boys suss you out you will struggle.
In case you didn't realise I am talking about Welham

Ive said before that in a couple of years time we could end up with Englands 2 centres coming from Hull clubs, Briscoe and Welham.

why are watkins and atkins going to union or something?
