With Noble's reluctance to give Sam Tomkins a run in the side, Ainscough a bit part player and not a regular. Is it a possibility that another big Super League team comes in and gives IL an offer he can not turn down. I am sure that these players would move on to get first team rugby.

i can see ainscough becoming a regular now to be honest, if noble is true to his word and picks players on form ainscough will be the first player on the team sheet next week.

Ainscough isn't even a bit part player! He's only played one SL game, it's a joke! These young lads don't deserve how they're getting treated! They deserve to be given a shot. They're not gaining anything through sitting on the sidelines and playing in the reserves. How are they meant to develop?

Ainscough is now a test of Noble's ethos that they will stay in the side. Mossop & Sam need to be tried next.

RU will be the only place we lose these two player to

He was still playing U18 academy last year. We've only played three games this season
He has plenty time, have some patience.

Thats nothing to do with us Brian, he has a fair point.

Based on last night, Ainscough should start every game from this point onwards. But i have no confidence in Noble that he will continue to pick him.

And how long until Tomkins gets fed up?

ainscough will be on the wing next week.

mossop may get a game the way our back rowers are falling
