I'm guessing this is because he's been linked with you?

Not seen him but he's well thought of by all accounts. Had a couple of shoulder injuries which have probably prevented him making his debut

not at all, people saying hes highly rated and wanted to hear opinions as i knew of him from when he was in amateurs

whats fc fans opinion on kye armstrong ?

Assuming he stays at the club and injury free, he has the ability to be our 13 for the next 10 years or so. Had he not missed part of the season through injury he'd have made his debut along with Wainhouse. Both are among the best forward prospects in England.

Surprised we are bringing in a full back so are we presuming Walker is on his way out? .

I think all things considered Walker is likely on his way there’s been rumours a while but as I said earlier I think people obsess a lot more in this country about pigeon holing players then they do in Aus and it might not necessarily mean he’s coming in as the starting fullback.

For a start he’s very much going to be a ‘project’ player, for perspective he’s not rated as highly as Hoy was who a had a lot more NRL experience but as we saw he was still far from the finished article. Also a lot of the modern athletic backs over there swap and change and slot in whatever position is needed or where the biggest contract is. Very little is known about him as he’s not played first grade and he can obviously play fullback but maybe Cartwright just see’s him as a raw talent he doesn’t want to miss out on rather then having any specific role in mind for him. I think one thing that’s pretty clear is he looks quick and I think everyone would agree that’s something we are going to need in the backline especially next season.

What it showed is just how good Adam Swift was individually not the partnership with Sutcliffe

That and the fact he had Clifford supplying him on that edge.

Chamberlain signs to replace Sutcliffe next season.

Poor Derek!

No better than sutcliffe but cheaper I expect. Still no pace in that back line.

It will be interesting to see who leigh replace these players with
