Guys like Prescott, Burgess at Leeds or Hargreaves at Saints are the guys that let you spend the big bucks on other front line players.'"
The value of British prop forwards are becoming very high at the moment with the Quota coming down and the simple lack of them. I think that is why we are seeing players like Lee Mossop and Ben Harrison being moved to prop so early in their careers. It could also be why Gareth Hock is being built up to play at prop.
Louie McCarthy Scarsbrook is a fine example of the above. He's not the best in the league, but he is still a young, british prop forward, with his best years ahead of him and so his value soars and Saints, Leeds and us are rumoured to be chasing him.
