Louis Senior and Innes Senior, featured a little bit last season for Huddersfield. I do not believe they are any relation to Keith Senior.

Widnes

Ollie Ashall(full back): Broke into the first team last season and looks to have cemented his place at FB#
Owen Buckley(winger): Made a handful of appearances on the wing impressing every time
Ryan Ince(winger): Has played for a season or two on the wing , signed on again for next season.
Joe Lyons(stand off): Stepped in at stand off in the middle 8's producing some good performances.
Ted and Jay Chapelhow(Prop): Both 22 or 23 but have been regulars in the Widnes team since coming through
Owen Farnwroth (Prop): Made a couple of appearances but looks very handy for his age


There are 4-5 others who are stepping up this year aswell as Danny Craven and Tom Gilmore who came through the academy but are now 25


We have a wealth of good talent coming through at Widnes but they need support around them and quality which we've struggled with massively.

At 22? The Chapelhow brothers are hardly Academy players anymore - they are the same age as Tom Johnstone.

Which is exactly why I said they’ve been regulars SINCE coming through the ranks, not that they are coming through.

They’ve only been around a couple of years max.

A pretty good assessment there IMO

8 very promising Leeds Rhinos U19 players have been selected in the Yorkshire academy squad to take on the Aussie Schoolboys at the Mend a Hose Jungle on Wednesday 28th November

Tyler Dupree, Tom Holroyd, Owen Trout, Muizz Mustapha, Corey Johnson, Louis McConnell, Jack Broadbent and Callum McCllellend although Harry Newman strangely hasn't been selected but i'd guess that he will be selected when England play the Aussie Schoolboys

Of those IMO Tom Holroyd,Corey Johnson,Callum McClelland and Harry Newman are all top drawer
But IMO all of the other players mentioned above could either make it at the Rhinos or at other SL clubs as they are all very talented players and as is always the case it is how they progress when they move up from academy level and start playing against men.

Morgan Smithies always looked class when I watched him play for both Siddal and Wigan and he looks to have a great future in the game (He also isn't selected in the Yorkshire side but will definitely play for England Academy)

Both are good pals .

I could never get my head around how this combined Hull FC/KR Academy set up would work and this probably proves that I'm correct and that both clubs didn't either

Run your own academies FFS and stop penny pinching

Its not penny pinching. The amount both clubs sunk into their individual academies is been sunk into the joint academy. It was more about the shallow player pool in the area.
