Some posters expectations of these youngsters are unrealistic for week in and week out SL


We keep calling them youngsters.Scott apart who is only 18 most of them are 22 and should be making a mark by now.
Even Litten i dont think will make it.
When i see Danny Walker at Widnes play and he is only 18 you can see just how far ahead of Litten he is.
If Widnes go down he is a player we should be in for straight away.

I agree with you.
People get so protective over the younger players and make excuses for them, Masi aside I don't think any of the others are good enough.

Like you say Walker 18.
Johnstone 22
Thompson and Richardson at Sts 23 and 21 respectively.

If you're good enough you're old enough is how I see it.

4 players from 3 teams, hardy conclusive evidence.

Every player in SuperLeague was 18 once up a time, I wonder how many were nailed on regulars in their teens?

If you're not quite good enough (yet), then age is irrelevant.






Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

I could have mentioned the young ginger lad at Warrington, the youngsters at Wigan, the winger and hooker at Hudds, Regan Grace but couldn't really be bothered.
These players are all of a similar age to ours but clearly better and 1st team regulars.

Not really sure what your point is?

Litten is only 20, so still plenty of time, Walker is an exceptional talent, also because Widnes are rubbish he has got more gsmetimr, which has benefited him, I'm sure litten will improve in his spell at Donny, although I'd give him a few games in the 8s. Learning at hudds is 22.

Most forwards take time to develop, there are the odd examples who don't, but look at Bowden, only started to look like a good SL player the last couple of years.

Look at Wigan last year, great youngsters, but couldn't cope with playing week in week out, also got beat 62-0 by wakey in 2016.

Still plenty of time for the likes of Harris, Litten, Scott and Masi and you can get away with playing one or two each week but any team with this many injuries will struggle, the table IMO is pretty much dictated on injuries these days.

England Knights squad named today. Wigan have 5 players then just us & Leeds have 4, not so shabby really. In addition to Connor and Taylor maintaining their senior squad status, obvs. Bowden drops out due to season ending injury.

Great work ethic has Fash but never a Super league starter
