Starting to look really good for you. Shame he had to go off, I was enjoying watching him play. Few more 1st team games and he will be doing really well, as Long gets older could see him filling in more.

Thought he took his try superbly.

Didn't look too good as he came off - hopefully its not too serious.

He does look realy good, which is nice as we may be about to misplace our No.6

Great game from Wheeler, poor effort from Atkins trying to smash him when he had clearly gone down injured.

Hardly missed Long, and that's testament to Wheeler, Wilkin and Price.

Exciting future with Wheeler, Eastmond & Lomax all being able to play in the halves and at the back.

Hope Wheeler's ankle is ok for the Leeds game.

He had a great game, but his injury was worrying. That could quite easily be a season ender. Hopefully though it's just a minor ankle strain as we'll no doubt need him next week.

He walked off at the end, so i doubt its too serious

thought Atkins was a bit naughty go in at him like he did,

Sprained his ankle according to Sky. I would expect to see him back next week.

I am very happy with the kids coming through this season. Lomax showed some nice touches, and the mistakes will disappear as he gets more game time. Wheeler was excellent, and Ashurst looks like he could be a gem too given more time. Great pass for Ade's try.
