Many mentions of how good Lino, Storton and Scott have been in pre season, I agree they have been fabulous. Just wanted to mention how well Croft has played, he has really shone and I think would well deserve his place in the 17 for Leeds. Was speaking to a very experienced Rugby man who has over the years had a huge amount of experience signing and retaining players, he made the point that for the first time in a generation we are now in a position where we can have patience with young players, young players with obvious talent develop at different rates. It will be brilliant if Croft and Shaw come through this season and nail down starting positions. Likewise Vagana obviously has talent but is likely to need time, he is young and we are now in a position to give him time and hopefully reap rewards.
