| I've never made any attempt to hide my total admiration for Ben Harrison, but even I have been beaming inwardly at the level of performance he has shown in the last two games.
For me, he's the complete modern forward. An imposing size, tremedous go-forward, insatiable workrate, deft footwork, brave, utterly selfless and totally committed in everything he does. These traits alone would make him a player any SL club would covet, but the lad also has the ball-handling and off-loading ability of a stand-off.
I had the priviledge of watching Mark Roberts in his pomp and Ben is the closest I've seen since, in terms of multi-faceted forward skills allayed with granite-like courage at the coal-face.
I suspect Ben will mature into a splendid ball-handling prop, but as long as he does it in the P&B the likes of Ben Evans have a fine benchmark to aspire to.

| Sims will be fighting for his spot if Harrison keeps it up!

| Harrison is one of the smartest moves we've ever made...pure Cumbrian granite and him and Ben Evans are going to thrill us for a few years to come. Harrison was mom by a mile tonight within a great team performance.

| I remember a few years back and he was being compared to big Sam Burgess. He's really clever with what he does. He's tiresome in everything but every now and again he'll charge up some extra effort to make a game changing tackle on a key opposing forward. Tonight he crunched Walmsley early on and Walmsley went off. He went in hard on Masoe a few times and with the help of M Monas, dislodged the ball at key points in the match. We miss him big time when he's not present.

| There were people on here earlier this seaon that were saying that Ben Harrison was finished. All he needed was a run of games to get back into things. He's in great form now. Four nations spot on the cards?

Probably not as he doesn't play in the NRL. He's in his best form for a long time though. Should have got Sky's MOM but as Stevo picks it, he didn't.

He was my MoM in the Hudds match for sure.

| It is great to see so many fans applauding the contribution made by Ben Harrison. I have said before that he would be the first name on my team sheet as he is the hardest worker in the team.
I would hesitate though to compare him with Mark Roberts. Ben is the epitome of a hard working prop with a bone crushing but fair tackling technique. Mark was as good a fast running back rower as you are likely to get.

| Ben was absolute quality last night...great performance. If he can stay away from injuries and maintain that level of consistency for a season he's MOS material. Prop his best position now?

| Hill, Harrison, Simms, B Evans, England, Wood..some quality props there plus Walker and G King from the 19s
I am really looking forward to seing Ben Evans back in the side; he was absolutely superb up to his injury and i would have him in the 17 every week.

I agree Walt, Ben was superb prior to his injury. He did tweet a few weeks ago that he was expecting to be back for the Hudds game. Has he had a set back does anyone know?
