| Williams is a bit of a show pony. Got all the tools but can be really frustrating as he lacks desire.
A luxury player. Certainly not a prop.
Think your money is better spent on someone else.

| So, Strength in Depth. Who could we sign/is available at this stage to bolster our front row in size and experience? It only takes a second for us to lose a valuable player and it could affect us seriously, unless youngsters are thrown in. I think we need a bit of experience. Whats available thats worthwhile? Cheers

| Anthony Mullally from Leeds on loan is an option considered by the club. But seen as though we have Krasniqi and Haggerty sat in the stands struggling to get a game, do we need a new prop?

| Yes if the person is a Mozza type at the end of his career: simply to show our younger props how to react while playing: some games need the older forward leading by example.

I think so, we have space left on the cap and surely everyone agrees that the front row position is where we are weakest.

I disagree. We have 5 props already so im not sure are we weak in that area at all? The days of an interchanging prop trundling up the middle for 3 or 4 plays is gone certainly the we play. We have props 2nd rowers and wingers all carrying the ball - would we really benefit from an older prop who would blow out of his ar*e after 20 mins and take an interchange up?

Well said Redrum - Totally agree as many of us have been saying for weeks. The style we are playing is not suitable for has been 18 stone plodders.

| Seeing as though we've slipped back to oblivion and the injuries are starting to mount upon a very light and fragile squad in the first place, is there any potential signings or loanees out there lingering, sometimes there are hidden gems out there which may help to bolster our current squad. I know when the shet hits the fan and when things are going wrong its time to go back to basics or change personnel. I'm really flummoxed why we've loaned Haggarty if we ain't going to use him its simply wasting money if you ask me. With regards to positions Prop is a huge void we need to bolster aswell as Hooker with Lee now unavailable and out injured. The penalty count will rise hugely with Tomkins getting more minutes no doubt.

| Mitch Achurch could well be playing for Salford next year.
In the meantime I suggest again that when Hauraki is back we move Ben MM into the middles. He is wasted on the edges running at smaller men he needs to be in the thick of the action making metres and sparring with other big lads. I said this at the start of the season and people now are realising.

Fair point regarding BMM Mario, i mentioned this last week too, he has the all the attributes for a prop and we need more from him. He's our main Man Achurch on the other hand is better than the Walnenuts, Joseph and Forster put together so its a step in the right direction.
