hmm comments over the other players:

machin - good player at 16's  havnt seen him play in a while stu wilson - good strong running very good in defence
mark - quick, good defence good ball handler
jack - ohh jack lol isnt scared to tack a ball in or make a tackle very good in defence and strong runner
sam - excellent running good defence good team player always encouraging people on his team and the opposition
david hanabury - decent player at 16's but IMO to small and light to compete with men
chris - very quick good ball handler and strong running can play most positions except maybe second row and prop good in defence
foxy - well no1 really needs to comment on him because he has already signed for haven but ... strong running good in defence good all round kicker
haven till i die

IMO these two, Chris (9,6,7) and Foxy (Centre) are the best players within that age group. Both have been signed already, last summer i think! and will see action this year in haven academy.

yep good mates with foxy he said to me that he will be playing for academy this year i think chris will be aswel

also agree with you them 2 are the best players at that age group also think paul corkhill could perform at a very high level if he stuck in

have to say though in the age group above i think only danny barker was signed and there are far better players than him at his age
