Signed a 2 year deal with an option.

You’re right 27 years old now.

Big unit with a bit of pace could he converted into second row?

I wondered that about Thornley as well (but his injury record might go against that) given that Wardle and King could be first choice centres.

He is a squad player at best. He's not big, fast or a great ball player, his speed from acting half his abysmal.

It depends on your version of let down, if someone that tries their best is your requirement, then no he hasn't as he always does try his best. If you're looking for talent and ability to go with the effort, that is where I feel he's let down, not his fault at all, but he's limited.

Not so sure with Shorrocks that he's lacking talent. He's been behind two very good second rows which is what he is for me. At times his utility allowed him to play inside and just like when Batty and Faz come in from the edges he doesn't shine there and although it's given him game time does him little favour. If we need this season I would give him a few games on the edge and judge him then. If needed he's the sort of replacement for Isa in the squad you need without taking a quota spot maybe not a star but for me he doesn't let you down no problem with him that way in the squad seems a good lad.
