Sorry to put a dampener on things but the guy's been with us as far as I'm aware since pre season and doesn't to be any fitter.
Don't get wrong, he does a job and did on Thursday. In the 'modern' game a fit prop who gets long minutes under his belt is invaluable. Two props in Spencer and Hopkins will leave next season, Parker may only fancy another year, good props aren't easy to come by. The opportunity is there for him to shed some pounds and really get stuck in ahead of next season. He's only young for a prop and he's a good prospect, I hope he can realise his potential.
Young Bate looked really impressive, he's really tenacious and to come into that game having only played one first team game and put in a performance like he did was outstanding.
) are two that spring to mind. Young Anthony has really grabbed the bull by the horns and looks completely at home in the first team. Joe if he becomes our player has the physique to become another Sam Hopkins. My star - with some good conditioning - is Ryan Duffy. The lad really does try his heart out and made some fantastic hits on thursday. He tries to get back in the line quickly and never takes a backward step. His play the balls are quick and he is still only young. Ryan is my tip to be a Leigh favourate and star.
