Or Tom Learoyd-Lahrs or Ben Creagh? Can't be that many who fit the criteria?

Tom Learoyd-Lars fits. Question marks over his fitness though. A double barrelled name has been touted about too but not by Moley. And Moley already said no about him.
Still he didn't respond about Ben Hannant when questioned. ??

With a prop it's not age that matters so much as whether the individual player is past his best.

There have been lots of good props that have been strong in the back end of their careers: Ruben Wiki and Steve Price were world class props in their mid 30s. You get more good older props than good older outside backs as technique matters more than speed. I remember Wigan making the Grand Final with an ageing front row of O'Connor, Smith and Pongia that were all class performers.

But some props go past their best earlier and this is probably what we missed with signing Asotasi. Fielden was past his best by his late 20s!

Moley says Warrington has a interest of 1 from 3 props currently playing in the NRL. That's all he'll reveal.

Saw this too, he's said he's sworn to secrecy too which means the ball is rolling with someone..

There are about 3 with disputes Tom Learoyd-Lahrs and Ben Hannant we've already touched on.

That's not even worth repeating. Anybody could say that, it's completely obvious. Warrington will have 'interest' in the majority of players becoming available from the NRL, how far that interest goes depends on many things, hence the reason it isn't worth repeating.

Every year I could say Warrington are interested in a forward from the NRL and I'd probably be right, but why that's worth debating I'm not quite sure.

I didn't repeat it but you did.
And there was repeating and repeating your post.

We are reportedly after Ashton Sims, according to the Zero Tackle Facebook page. He's 29, but hasn't played Origin. I'd prefer his brother Tariq personally, who is more mobile and a bit of an enforcer.

He's another backrower too.
He has played prop but it's like playing Trent there.

Cowboy could be headed for England  

BIG spending English club Warrington is chasing giant Cowboys forward Ashton Sims for next season. 

The Wolves are on the lookout for a front-rower and have targeted Sims, who comes off contract at the end of the season. 

The Cowboys rate Sims but with a couple of State of Origin props in James Tamou and Matt Scott on their books, are unlikely to be able to make a competitive offer to Sims.
