Grix the most overrated player in a Wakey shirt.

I didn't mind him to be fair, and he played a part, I just dont think Jowitt got a fair crack in the two years he was here. I'd say ability-wise Jowitt shaded it even at his young age, Grix as a veteran had to be so much better to justify his continued selection and he just wasn't.

Still this is Jowitt's fanfare, well played lad. Keep it up.

Absolutely stunning performance from Max, as good an 80 minute full back performance you’ll see anywhere...I’ve always been a big fan!

Feel he has been made a scapegoat at times but has also suffered quite a few injury setbacks which has also contributed to him being in and out of the side...just hope he can remain injury free because on his performances since going back to full back he’s shown we’ve got a terrific player there for years to come!

I know this thread is about Max but there is so many similarities with another young product James Batchelor!

Another who has looked a scapegoat at times (Cas away) and that sin bin...but has also been stop start with injuries...thought he was magnificent tonight too, after copping an elbow clean on the snout early doors...hope he can stay injury free too because his work rate, tackling ability, energy and lines he runs all make him a real star of the future...

Along with Crowther, Johnstone etc...we’ve got a good core of quality homegrown players we need to trust and believe in more because that is the key to success...

I've been impressed with Batch over the past 3 games. Great in defence, running some Ashurst type lines and making good yards. Another player who will benefit from playing more games.

I’ve never bagged players on here but he frustrated the hell out of me, sorry.

That there is no doubt. The St Helen's game will sadly never be erased from my memory, but he did some good things too.

Good post Vastman. Totally agree.

Agreed Jowitt should get the number 1 shirt next year

100% agree.

Well played Max. I think most of us on here always knew you had the potential. Now you're proving us right.

Agreed I was beginning to think he’d never kick on from his impressive start but looks great at the moment. Ready made to take over from Ashurst as and when.
