Town have got their man ...have we missed an opporrunity,  is he over rated , have they over payed. Or does he need   couple of years before he joins Haven.?

Ellis Holgate also ..same applies .?

He’s a top amateur but will the step up be too much only time will tell but if they are relying on amateur players not proven at champ level keeping them in championship then they are in for a big shock let’s see if the other lad follows him

He will  be very decent at our level in a year or two . Too late for SL

Holgate could or may still has the ability to go to SL am sure he ill be snapped up  by some club ..Featherstone I reckon.

Could be a great addition, but it’s sign of times when young locals are now asking for more than what some experienced championship players are payed. It could be that the lad knew by going to Town his position is almost guaranteed. Still would have like to see him in a haven shirt mind 😂 but 💩 happens.

Plenty of time for him to come to haven let him get bedded into pro rugby then hopefully signs for us in a few year
