Our younger players in general have stepped up and put the experienced players to shame, excluding Sia. Lomax, Makinson, Greenwood, Swift, Walmsley and Percival have outshone everyone else.
Indeed.
After his first game, Walker looked bang average (think it was vs Leeds?) but ever since in the Warrington and Wigan games he's looked very handy and his stats are impressive.
Greenwood looks a great prospect considering how well he's going now and the potential he has considering his frame.
Percival looks a real threat and should be our starting centre with Turner on the other side (who has also impressed me). Gives us pace and some real threat if we can find a HB who can exploit that.
Swift/Makinson haven't really impressed me as I would have liked. Especially Makinson who has been a bit disappointing for me considering how well he did when he broke through. Swift looks ok, but hasn't done much so far.
Walmsley/Lomax have been discussed to death and look very very good.
Someone you have missed out is Jones. Think he's done really well again considering he is now playing in the back-row. I was sceptical of that position for him, but he's done well there I think. If he can improve he could be great there. Centre isn't his position as he just doesn't have the pace IMO.
