I saw Harrison Gilmore play for the first time this weekend and thought he looked a decent player. Think he was sent out to play second row but definitely looks like he could be moved the prop. I doesn't seem helpful for now, but him, Aliyu and Oladipupo all look decent prospects for the front row.

Not seen much of Gilmore (and relation to Lee?). Aliyu is very mobile and solid but we've had a few of these shorter props and none have made the grade really. Oladipupo looks a big aggressive thing, he could be one to watch. Again though, stuck record but I would have preferred us to sign Sam Eseh who is much further down the track... then again maybe his skill isn't what we're looking for, or with the dual reg between Wakey and Wigan we never really had a shout, who knows.
Not sure I see a real standout prop in the system like I thought Holroyd was, but fingers crossed.

Not seen Harrison Gilmore but no relation to Lee Gilmour. Reminded me of an Eddie Waring classic from many moons ago, “Frankie Barrow tackled there by Leatherbarrow, ….. no relation”

Not sure if it means anything, but Kyden Frater, Ben Hursey Hord, Ben Littlewood and Ned McCormack have been moved to the first team page on the club website.

Sounds like the youngsters gave Hunslet a good game last night in a narrow loss, did anyone go and watch? Wondering how Hudson looked and how the new kids went
