Oliver Gildart, Jack Higginson, Liam Forsyth and Nick Gregson have all played well in the academy this season.
However I think that if Luke Waterworth can put some size on he can be a superb player. He is one of the few hookers who appearers to have the complete game. His passing and decision making from dummy half is as good as you will see from a young player. He turned the game around when he came on in the academy semi final at Saints.
It'll also be interesting to see how Joe Bretherton comes back after missing the entire season with an ACL injury.
