Actually you gave your OPINION about the likely playing style.

Your original comment referenced Props, do make your mind up

I would agree about Butler. His aggression and the fact that he " wen't away and worked on exactly the areas he needed to improve" whilst at London, plus his age ( 22) make him a really interesting prospect for us. But despite the fact that props seem to mature rather later in their careers, Mulhern is already 26 and I have a feeling he will turn out to be another Anthony England. I would love to be proved wrong of course.

England is a bit harsh at this point, I think we were trying to strike lucky twice from the championship, I hadn't heard anything promising about him when we signed him, he was just a big unit. Cas I think let him go from their academy into the championship.

Still though, we wait and see

Yes, I suppose it's a waiting game. And as far as Butler is concerned he has a golden opportunity now to stake his claim so he will surely throw the kitchen sink at it. Any roads, the squad / team will be a lot more balanced next year. I hope we will also see Doro getting match time, if not he needs to go out on a season long loan rather than left to kick his heels on the sideline.

I wonder if we will offload Latu and Akauoala after the new SL club is announced this month ?

I hope so matey, i've got a good feeling but that's genuine excitement kicking in aswell I genuinely think we'vre got it right for next but like you say it's a case of time will tell

I would think the new SL club management will have done enough homework to steer well clear of our two stooges.

Agree, we are certainly going to be stuck with Latu, sita could get a taker but I'd expect he would need to prove his fitness. I think someone like Watson at huddersfield would be able to get a lot out of sita to be honest.

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)
