Quote: The Whiffy Kipper "What about Japanese union props?'"
Interesting proposition, it'll be a "developmental signing" such as Flower/Clubb/Sarginson etc but one which would certainly raise eyebrows.
The potential, desire, fitness and general ball skills would have to be there for it to stand any chance. Without tarring all union props with the same brush, there is such a huge gulf between props of both codes in terms of work rate and general ball skills that a Union backrower/centre would probably be more suited to League propping.
