What an opportunity for young Jack, to play alongside generational talent, Adam Wharton.
What happened to the once fabled Albion centre back production line?
In the space of just a few years it churned out Joel Lynch, Tommy Elphick, Grant Hall, Steve Cook and a little later, Lewis Dunk.
Then almost nothing for a decade...
Ben White if you count him as 'our' product, was a big...
