I thought Harvey Makin was outstanding in that final, he was my player of the match and best forward on by a considerable margin.
It's a shame he suffered that acl injury a couple of years back, he, Hill and Nsemba look great prospects.

Very true and I suppose that's what I'm hoping for with him. There's been a few "pocket rockets" over the years and, whilst I'm not suggesting he's that small, I'm hoping he fits into that category.Charriots Offiah wrote: ↑Tue Oct 03, 2023 1:30 amThe same was said about Andy Platt and he wasn’t too shabby.Flash wrote: ↑Mon Oct 02, 2023 11:43 pmHe was outstanding Brian.

The problem is that size seems to be becoming more important across most positions but particularly in the forwards. There seems to be fewer 'Andy Platts' coming through over recent years. Hope he bucks the trend in that respect.

Platty started as a loose forward/ second rower and played prop when he filled out at wigan.If my memory is correct.I also remember him scoring a try at leigh from the half way line ish
