Consumate is the word!
Normally a F/B is either a good attacker or defender or has safe hands. Rarely do you find a player who though not outstanding at any of them is very good at all three which IMHO makes him an excellent F/B. Before anybody takes offence think about what I've just said - he's not exceptionally fast like Johnstone is or Hall can be, there are possibly a few better tacklers out there and ditto safe hands. However I can't think of anyone in SL ot the moment who's as good at all three as Jowitt appears to be on his last two outings.
I'll put it a better way,
Jowitt Attack 8, defence 8, Safety 8 = 24/30
Big club player X Attack 10, defence 6, Safety 6 - 22/30
It's only Jowitt by 2 but in a game often won by inches that's a big difference and I know which players stats I'd want.
Well doen Max.

I think an on form Zak Hardaker is the benchmark in terms of all round fullback ability in superleague, although even he seems to have been bitten by the Leeds decline this season. Jowitt has matched his all round ability in his couple of games this season so far.
But i'd add one more category to your list, and that is attitude. I've yet to see young Max Give up on a chase, duck out of a challenge or going hiding where the hard yards off the line are needed. He beats the aforementioned Hardaker hands down in this department. He's still raw and his reading of the game without the ball will continue to improve over time but for a lad with under 10 first team games under his belt he looks scarily good.

| He is pretty quick, not in the same league as Johnstone but if he gets 5yards on someone they won't catch him over 60 or 70 metres.

| What a brilliant offload for Johnstone's 2nd try. And looked solid with every high ball Dobson kicked at him, no ounce of fear of on rushing defence (especially with Carney). Well deserved MOM.

| Talk about competition for places.
I was feeling a bit sorry for Craig Hall being rested after scoring the winner on Monday but, Jowitt was as good at FB today as I can remember in my time.
Rock solid under the high ball, tackled everything and setting up tries (the beating a man and off load to put Johnstone in, was class).
Phil Clarke was in need of a mop and bucket with the efforts of our two youngsters.
Absolutely brilliant !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| Max Jowitt is head and shoulders above Craig hall at fullback. Totally committed in attack and defence and safe as houses under the high ball. A star in the making along with Tom .

| Vastman you say not fast like Johnstone Hall who would have backed him to chase and catch an international winger like he did on Good Friday so he aint no slouch the lad could go on to be one of the best all round fullbacks we have ever had. As they say it also depends how he reacts after a poor game and I think his attitude will pull him straight through any dip he might have. It looks like we have unearthed a gem in the hardest position to play on the field where you cant be a shrinking violet

Exactly my point, with all the other boxes ticked pretty quick is all he needs to be a devastating F/B.
If you recall Matt Blaymire had all the other attributes but his total lack of speed meant he could never join the elite evn though he did a good job for us.

| How good is Max?? He gets better and better, the things he does at his age are outstanding!! His kick for BJB in the last two mins of a game summed it up for me, Fabulous to see a young Wakey lad performing week in, week out!

| The 1st try came from his speedy half break and off the ground off load. There was also a towering bomb that came down with snow on it, handled with ease a micro second before he took a massive hit. The kick through on 77 minutes was the icing on the cake.

| Outstanding. first name on the team sheet for the next however many years. Max Jowitt FB closely followed by Tom Johnson Wing. What a player Jowitt is them lines he runs in attack in all parts of the pitch are devestating. What a player.

I expect to see Tom Johnstone move off the wing within the next year tbh.

| I'm sure people said the same about Captain Kirmo. However IMO he's a great winger, evasive, strong and like greased lighting. I'd keep him on the wing, finishing
Off moves
