Quote: DaveO "Same here. This signing smacks of desperation with the exit of Lauaki and Powell leaving us short of experienced props.
It also highlights the madness of selling Hansen.'"
Desparation would be signing him as our starting prop or paying a lot for him. What it has to do with Hansen is beyond me. He and Tuson are replaced by Clubb, Bateman and Hopkin, not someone we've signed as injury cover for a year at prop until Greenwood/Sutton is ready to play the odd game
