Quote: Wirefan "The issue here is that when Hill and Sims are off the field, that our go forward, well, doesn't go forward.
It will not be a problem solved by signing more backs.'"

Yes it will be solved by a half that guides the pack around the field just like it did at Cas when they both turned in a good shift.

Quote: Snaggletooth "The Pie board reckon Tony Clubb is their best prop?'"


Tony Clubb is our only prop! The others are a pale imitation of what a prop forward should be.

He's been fantastic for Wigan since signing has Clubb. He's aggressive in defence, works his socks off and can be a handful in attack.

Us like Wire need a prop from somewhere but who? There aren't a lot of good ones knocking about who you feel are available.

Quote: Fantastic Mr Catpiss "i think we'd be loathe to choose anyone again from the championship at the moment, we certainly don't need another project.

Who's the props at wakefield, is it scott anderson? is he the one they rave about?'"

Anderson is a very good prop and would be a good signing for any superleague side. There was a rumour earlier in the season though that you were interested in Nick Scruton.

What do people think about Scott Taylor? He seemed pretty good the few times I've seen him recently, stats look good too and I imagine he'd prefer to stay in SL if Salford go down...

Signed for Hull to replace Paea.

Saints are after another prop as well, but may look at settling for a backrower at this rate. Saints, Warrington and Wigan all chasing props will only lead to even mediocre props demanding huge wages.

Ha ha yes the props were crap tonight that shows it. Sims and Hill ran and tackled their hearts out tonight on there own. England played 15 mins ? Asotasi is a waste of space granted, and our back line were all still tired from school. How can anyone expect a pack of philbin, currie, king, Wilde compete in Superleague.

3 things have caused us a problem that has not been solved ,the signing of roy Asotasi,on I assume big money , total letdown ,, Paul Wood leaving and not immediately being replaced and Ben Evans sustaining a bad injury so early on , England was always going to be a punt but, he did show good signs at start of season ,,, so who's call was it to sign Big Roy ?? Imagine if we'd got cuthbertson instead

Asotasi isn't anywhere near as bad as Warrington fans make out. His metres per carry are very good, he just isn't used for long. I'd say Smith's use of him is making him look a lot worse than he actually is. He's better with the ball than Ashton Sims who is much lauded on here. Doesn't have the same defensive stats, but I'll bet Sims' minutes on the field swamp Asotasi's.

Asotasi has had nothing like the impact of Sims ,for someone with his reputation he has been very disappointing, nothing personal,I'd have love to have seen him perform like he has done in the past but, it hasn't happened

You are entirely right, Asotasi makes good metres per carry, secures quick PTBs and hits hard in defence...but only for fifteen minutes a game.

Sims is actually a poor carrier of the ball and always gets a taste of the grass even with only one defender present. He is very vulnerable to a low, well executed tackle. He escapes criticism because he does appear to be enthusiastic and tries his level best.

IMO, Sims is our clubs vision of Peacock. But Sims falls some way short of that expectation. I would hazard a guess he is on more money though.
