Aye.....last season he played for ideal this year he played in a play-off derby

...it showed




The kid will hopefully take a lot from the game.

I actually thought he had a pretty decent game and didn't look overwhelmed by the situation at all.

No problem with Reece's contribution tonight; he was targeted, out muscled at times but he's only 17 ffs. He showed tonight he has the heart for the game to go with his attacking skills.
Massive off season for him and Hull Fc.

its been clear since his debut that he probably wont ever really make it. he can be as fast over 100metres running into fresh air as he wants, but he hasnt got the coordination or the bottle to be a top sportsman. they are things you develop as a young child and unfortunately for them his arent up to it, just a far smaller version of karl pryce

Come in Bighead your time's up.

Have to disagree with that. Whilst I won't castigate him as he's still just a young kid learning the game, he was out of his depth tonight. A few fumbles, iffy positionally, and some bad decisions. They pressured him for errors and he duly obliged. He was far from alone in that though, and I'm sure he'll come back to have better days in the future.

Way out of his depth tonight, looked like a little kid and played like one.

He looks a good player !Not the biggest in stature but the lad shrugs them off well.

too much pressure has been placed on this kid.fans need to support him not crucify him!!!

He made some mistakes, but also looked good with ball in hand at times. Overall I thought he did OK for a 17 year old.

That I come closer to agreeing with. I think it was stretching it to say he had a decent game and didn't look overwhelmed though. Tonight was his weakest performance for us IMO.

Found our new scapegoat at least.



Thought he did OK overall for a 17 year old. Shame he didn't realise the tackle count had been wiped down when he kicked through though.

And he followed it up shortly after by holding onto it on the last.

You are joking aren't you?
Any player who puts their body on the line in RL has immense bottle in the first place but to do it against people like Clint Newton when your a 17 year old BOY means that one thing that can't be questioned is your bottle!

i remember yeamo getting slaughtered at saints as a 17 year old,shipping 3 tries.

It'll happen to most kids coming through. It's how they respond that defines what sort of a player they'll be.

Totally agree, made a few bad plays tonight and a few good ones too, he'll be better for the experience if he's going to make it.

Not great but not worst by a long shot easy to have a go at a young kid

fc fans speciality!!!!

There's a difference between having a go at the kid and pretending he had a good game. He didn't, he was out his depth but understandably so. There's no shame in it, and thinking he doesn't deserve/can't deal with having it pointed out is doing him a disservice, IMO.

When he has good games that will also be noted and he'll get plenty of praise. Can't have one without the other.

Agree with you mate,,,,it reminds me of the lad Penny who was at the Wire,blistering pace, but did get found out and was out of his depth,but hope he does ok.

what a dik,

had a good loan spell at quins this year though!!! signed for wakey for next year i think??

I can't criticise him. When I remember that he's only 7 days older than me, it makes me feel bad

Agreed. Made some basic errors. Kicked when it should have been back to one and was way back when Berro made a break. he also never came inside when Berro needed him.


Personally I think it was a great learning curve for him, he should enough when carrying the ball.
