I don't think he made a first team appearence though, so he obviously wasn't as good as what was around him (at the time). If he has turned out alright, then it goes to show the merits of the dual reg system - playing regular first team in the division below obviously does a lot more for a player's dvelopment than being a bit part player on the fringes of a SL squad.
Perhaps as well as dual regging players with Whitehaven ( i think they can have three players per week ), perhaps we should be sending the likes of Hand and Forster there on a season long loan.
The problem is, you can't keep them all.
