I saw that and it was a ridiculous comparison, can you imagine Cooke ever playing fullback because of his speed and evasiveness.

Think someone on here compared him to Rankin, which looks to be more accurate.

I saw the Cooke comparison too and it didn't sit right.

Is roopey the poster who seems to know what's going on at the Knights? Maybe they know what he's about

All I hope is that whatever the composition of next years squad is that when there are injuries rather than playing players out of position to fill the gaps our current crop of talented youngsters are given an opportunity first.

Bowden won't be here next year, we wanted him out now but can't afford the payoff due to us having to pay Reynolds a big amount.

In terms of the academy, Laidlaw reminds me a lot of Matty Lees at Saints

Definitely need a pathway for these talented academy lads.

Well a signing although it wasn't clear if that was for this season or next. He'd been asked about rumours circulating about incoming players.

What are you meaning? Isn’t Academy, Reserves, First team the pathway?
