I thought I'd have a go at a dream team for young players aged 21 or under at the start of the season.

FB - Ryan Hampshire
W- Joe Burgess
C - Mark Percival
C - John Bateman (he has played a few games there and I was struggling)
W - Denny Solomona
SO - George Williams
SH - Theo Fages
P - Brad Singleton
H - Daryl Clark
P - Ryan Sutton
SR - Stevie Ward
SR - Joe Greenwood
LK - Andre Savellio

Harder than I thought it would be and not a bad side IMO.

Hard to disagree with that. Maybe Dwyer at hooker.

Currie, Sutcliffe, Manfredi, Connor and Abdul good options too.

Evalds would be at full back for me. I'd also put Jake Connor at centre.

It's probably unfashionable to say this but we have some real quality in this league and young players with lots of potential. Some great young players knocking about

Evalds is a good call. I'd forgotten about him. I was choosing between Hampshire and Matty Russell.

Ryan Hampshire? All he's proven is he's a 6 and not a 1, and a very promising 6 at that.

Evalds has had a brilliant year at 1.

Only problem is Dwyer and Clarke are both slightly "over age"

(EDIT: Actually maybe not - just re-read the criteria was under 21 at *start* of the season)

We do seem to have a good spread of young players now and the depth of quality is certainly improving all the time.Plus the likes of Ward,Bateman,Clark,Burgess,Currie,Greenwood already are or are pushing hard to be included in the test squad this year with a few others like Sutcliffe,Singleton,Percival not far away either.

From a Cas' supporters point of view, I would endorse Mike McMeeken, after a shaky start, has stood up in some big games this season.

Also, Yaha at Catalans is a good shout.

Some people have been comparing him to William John "Billy" Boston.

I think that was you when you said he was a French Billy Boston.
