Gillies Downs Leeds Posted July 15, 2023 Report Share Posted July 15, 2023 Looking forward to seeing Cornick after a full pre season with us. He came to us in Jan having played very few minutes for Luton. You could tell he was struggling fitness wise 65 mins into most matches he started. I think he will be a big player for us this season. There I have said it. 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, please remain neutral…. ….at least until we see some highlights, then we can say FFS player x, what were you doing for their opener, or jeez, player z looks a super-star.

His lungs are in good shape (he did win one of the SDS tests) but dont think he's trained with the senior team.

To add to what Just8 said. Benarous was left at home when they went to Austria. And in the videos from Failand, he isn't involved in any of the drills involving contact - he's with the u21s while the 1st teamers get stuck into each other. But you're right, he is fit. And significantly, the video showing him pissing his SDS test ends with Pearson giving him a Well Done and a pat on the back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
