One thing that has surprised me about James Clare is his try scoring record. 6 in 5 for Leigh, 18 in 24 for Bradford (I think) and his strike rate for us was pretty impressive.

Will be interesting to see what becomes of that French lad Miloudi who is on trial. Could potentially be a dark horse to take over the 1 shirt.

This will give us the opportunity to see what kind of season we would have had last time round if we hadn't signed Hardaker afterwards.

Obviously the number 5 shirt will be fought over by Clare, Lo & the other outside backs now.
My thoughts exactly when this was confirmed, its going to be Eden as main fullback with Roberts the option, depending which is performing worse for the team in Ellis or Eden, probably using either Roberts or Ellis of the bench.

Young French lad is obviously a project with no first grade experience, I cannot see a fullback coming in now think we're done.

here I am again, we have on our books the ENGLAND under 19s full back , every time it is mentioned on the forum who is going to play full back, it must fill this lad with confidence that no one seems to think he is worth a shot, Bennys name keeps being put forward as our full back anyone know what is last injury was ?? to sign James Clare with our cover for wing I think the club see him as a full back

England under 19s is a completely different level to Super League. As yet, he’s only ever played against other players his own age. That’s not to say he won’t make it, but throwing a 19 year old into regular super league in a position like full-back risks destroying his confidence and damaging his long-term potential.
Powell sees him train every day and in the under 19s. I trust his judgement on when he is ready to come into the first team.

Thought they started last season with ash golding as they didn't think walker was at an age where he would be able to play super league week in week out and he only got his chance through injury

I don’t think they did. Walker did not start the season at Leeds as first choice full back. He played one Super League game before June and then a further 9 at the end of the season.
If one of our young players gets a chance on the first team and make themselves undroppable then fair enough, but going into the season with a kid as first choice full back is asking for trouble in my view.

They didn’t go into the season with him as first-choice though.

I’m sure DP will play young Turner in due course providing he’s good enough. Not everyone who plays for England Academy is good enough for Super League. Although one player I feel we must keep is young Trueman, out of all the kids we have produced in the past few years , he is special and up their with Daryl Clark at his age. I’m not getting a good feeling about him being with us after next year , as Wigan and Warrington are all over him , let’s hope we keep hold of him.

I'm not sure James Clare will be keeping Trueman out of the team though to be fair.

I keep hearing players are too young and inexperienced to play super league at 19 years of age, as anyone any information what age our current squad members made their super league debuts ??

Wow, you do realise these things come in cycles? There's negativity and negativity but I just don't get that last paragraph at all, all the Leeds trophies are now in the past, onwards and upwards for you.......Isn't it???
