Davies aside, that is a fair amount of experience to lose. I'd rather we have kept Ben Davies, but I'm happy to see how this Dudson chap develops if we have signed him. I do only see him as a replacement for Ben Davies and not for Andy Coley/Ben Cross. I still think we need to sign an experienced prop to take us back up to five. Just having four experienced props - one who hasn't played all year - is leaving us a bit thin. We've seen the need to have good depth in the forwards this season and have reaped the rewards of having six top quality props on our books when injuries have inevitably occurred.

I think we dodged a bullet with Poore. Another Josh Perry in the making. Interesting article here about George Carmont BUT also about Dean Bell sounding out Harrison Hansen for NZW www.nzherald.co.nz/league/news/a ... d=10842844
