Cooper is one of the best prop forwards in the league. Hill can still do a good 40 (but not 80) minutes. Philbin - I know lots of people talk about the wrecking ball, but have we seen enough of it this season (I haven't). And we've got some good, big framed young lads. Akuala - just doesn't do enough and made the stupidest tackle of the season to get his latest ban.
So yes, one new prop definitely. Maybe in the mould of Bobby Wanbon.

We filled the prop problems, hopefully they settle and do the job for us... We just need our attack to function right now..
Am I optimistic about next year? not really, but I'll be there fingers crossed

Prop is solved, attack is absolutely not solved. We don't even know where to start on that because we may need to recruit a half back.

It's strange.
Sita's always had a bit of stick on here for his 'minutes', but many liked the impact he had.
But ever since he fell out of favour with SP it seems he's been persona non grata. Pushed to the outside by the club, and berated from all quarters on here.
I feel a lot of it is over the top.

I'm not on the "Sita Out" bus. I think he's got a job. Would love to see the stats behind.his performance for say his first 5 mins vs his third/fourth to clearly see the dip in his performance, be that carriers, tackles or meters made. I assume this is the reason he's labelled as a 10 min prop by price and now KF (which i found a bit odd in honesty,, digging at players still at the club)

There's nothing new or sinister about the criticism of Sita, certainly not from me.

He produces a couple of blockbusting runs and a few tackles
After 10 mins he's gassed and is slow retreating at the ptb
As a result, teams get behind him and make cheap yards or he gets penalised
His workrate drops and he gets subbed
He comes back on, repeat above with less impact

Throw in a sin binning here and there, and that is and always has been the story.
