Great news

Eastmond next?

Another benefit of Long leaving means we have a lot of cap space to get these young lads singed up to long term deals.

GB team is secure for years to come now, saints have signed up talent galore to make sure GB are a force in the future ...typicla saints attitude this COUNTRY before CLUB, I love it !

Selfless Saints

These chaps were actually signed up before the Long decision was announced.

We already had plenty of cap room available didn't we?

We should have quite a bit with all the players lost last season, Scully would've been probably our top earner.

So we've got
Wellens
Armstrong
Wheeler
Lomax
Eastmond
Emmitt
Frodsham
Dixon
Graham
Ashurst
Roby
Cunningham
Clough

All products of our acadamy that've played this year as well as Matty Smith and Scott Moore out on loan and Wilkin and Gardner who we bought and developed.

Impressive.

Dads army

Proves what a great academy system we have.

Chris Dean
Steve Tyrer

Does Barry Giles still play at the Saints acadamy?

Let's just see how these young lads turn out before we say how good our academy is.

Any team can get young lads on the pitch but it's how good they are.

It's early doors yet.

Are you watching with your eyes closed?

No I'm not!

Just think you getting bit carried away with the kids.

Some of them only played few times yet people tip them to be next this and next that.

Let's just see how they go.

It wasn't long ago tyrer was going to be the next jamie Lyon.

So you don't agree Ashurst has made a steady step up, akin to Clough?

You don't agree Wheeler has shown maturity beyond his years?

Tell me where I said any of them havnt?

All I'm saying is don't get carried away with them.

Clough looks to be very good and also wheeler but not seen enough of the others yet.

It's obvious you have seen all these kids play at super league level more than me.

No one is getting carried away.

We are saying our academy has provided us with great success, it has, in recent years there are ten plus names who will be Saints regulars next season, and more who failed to make the grade playing rugby elsewhere.

I also recall bennet, tyrer showing maturity there years.

It takes more than a few games to say how good I think they are .

TBH I think the is a lot of people getting carried away.

I'd love it if all saints team was home grown lads but the is no chance that all of the kids will make it.

Thank you Mystic Meg. How about tomorrow's lottery results too?

If you think all them kids will be playing at a high level for saints for next 10 years then you living in a dream land.

I hope they all do but IMO we will be lucky to get half of them playing at the level we are used to.

Not getting carried away?

I've heard lomax is next wello

Armstrong better than meli

Tyrer next Lyon

Dixon the next scully

EMMITT IS BETTER THAN BRYN after the young lad had played 1 gamek

You really do know NOTHING about RL.

Give it up mate

Prove it.
