spot on TE - I watched him play FB for the England Academy in france and he looked a tremendous prospect,along with the other Wigan lads

Reckon at Hull we'll be seeing a lot of Reece Lyne, Jack Briscoe, Liam Kent, Liam Cunningham and Danny Nicklas this year as we have such a thin squad that we'll be forced to play some of these guys week in week out.

We have the Evans brothers (Ben & Rhys) with Craig Harvey looking quite useful too.

At Salford we've got a young hooker called Gareth Owen and Marc Sneyd who plays stand-off/scrum-half. Both played at the end of last season when key players got injured, but we should see more of them this year.

Scratch that... [url=http://www.hullfc.com/hullfc/contents/?p=728219-year-old Danny Nicklas out for the season[/url



Gutted.



Lee Williams looks set to be promoted to the full time squad in the mean time.

I'm keen to see how prop Adam Neal progresses this season, he came on loan from Warrington last season and looked like an excellent prospect in the 6 games he played last season. I think he's got a great chance of playing plenty of rugby this season.

We gonna see the debut of Tom Burgess this year then?

highly likely I'd have though given way he's gone in friendlies.

At cas



arundel (centre)-played towards the end of last season and looked very good has done well in friendlies too looked very dangerous, should be a starter this year and will score plenty of tries.

thompson (utility)-another that played last season, looks good at centre, wing, fullback. got good reports in the england academy series against the aussies. main problem seems to be he is to versatile so doesnt get to play any one position for too long. likely to get plenty of game time agian.

walker(prop)- big lad who likes big hits, should play plenty, looked very good last year in the games he played.

Milner(hooker)- Captained the england academy side to victory over australia, will be our interchange hooker this season, for me the best of our young players, another player with sl experiance.



Another to watch out for is daz clarke, would probably already have played if it werent for milner being so good, very good footwork and pace for a hooker, big future ahead of him.

You'd best be hoping you don't.. Heaven forbid he's got even bigger and looks even better! Frightening size given his tender years.



Agree with the first post re: Bradford. Addy's excited me for a long while and hopefully he can manage to get into the 17 on a regular basis.

I have to wonder how critical to his entire RL career a season long injury at his age will be.

Scott Taylor, Louis Sheriff and Kristian Bell are looking good at Hull KR
