Best forward in the U19's by a long way, not sure he'll get bigger, good feet and runs some good lines, pretty nibble for a forward.

Aye, saw that a couple of days ago or so and was gonna post it here. I don't know anything about him but a good long deal for the lad, especially one that's just turned 18 and as a bonus he's a product of my old club Eastmoor Dragons

. Hopefully, he'll be another Johnstone, Batch, Jowitt etc player that'll make a name for himself in SL.

Just looking at the picture of him, he doesn't look tall but at 18 and weighing 104 kgs he's a good size already and will only mature.

Good to hear that Club 1873 money is helping to produce the goods again. Usually only a one year deal they get initially so rumours this lad was highly thought of seem correct.

He reminds me a lot of Anakin but with enough size to compete at the top level. He’s not huge maybe 5’11’’ but he’s really tough and strong and never takes a backward step. Bit of spite in him, could go on to be a real tough player.

Also not short of ability, watch the U19 v Cas in Trinity TV, he’s the stand out forward and he really gets undeR the Cas players skin - I really like him and he’s a real rarity in the modern game in that he can handle some biff.

104kg?

About 16.4 stone.

Chester and Applegarth must be quite hefty too then.

Tbf it’s not that heavy. He is what they call heavy set which without going into racial stereotyping is not uncommon in the Middle East and yes I’m making an assumption so I suspect to be shot by the PC police.

To be fair using the stereotype I often thought of the standard middle east build to be slight.

Still he's the going weight for a smaller prop now. Don't think Huby is much more? At 18 and still looking trim he's has scope to put on a stone more I reckon without impacting his game much.

I was thinking more your Turkish wrestler type. I’d guess he might end up like Arona as a LF who can Prop. Anyway a long way to go for the lad.
