Quote: Stu M "As FTV has said, Knowles has played prop internationally'"


Tony Clubb played centre for England, doesn't mean he is one. Same with Blake Austin on the wing. icon_lol.gif

Quote: Phuzzy "Cooper is a little underrated as he's at the back end of his career but, in truth, he hasn't lost much over the years. He's always been a "quietly getting on with quality work" type of player and he's still that now. Not flash, just effective.

Harvard is the big plus though. He's simply one of the best in the comp when fully fit and on his game. He's consistently over 100 metres and can do long minutes. Havard and Thompson as an opening pair is as good as it gets both in attack and defense.'"


I concur with you there. The long shifts they put in also allows the coaching team to rotate the players more effectively which will mean that we should have a big advantage later in the game when the opposition forwards are tiring. Those two, and Cooper, when fit will be in the 17.

I loved Havard coming off the bench, his footwork against the slightly tired defence caused loads of problems.

Before his return game I might watch Warrington at home in the cup from last year. The best prop forward performance in years.


I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again

How we’ve gone from.

A hell of a turnaround from the dark days of 2019-2020 I agree. Still have nightmares from going into a playoff game against Saints with a front row of Clubb and a teenage Partington.

The only caveat with Havard is he has to be more consistent for me. The cup game against Warrington was awesome but then followed a drop off and its something that has been quite common for him at Wigan.

If all can be fit at the same time what the rotation? Harvard and Thompson start with Byrne, Dupree and Mago to come on? Rotate every week maybe as Cooper and hill wouldn’t deserve to miss out

Consistency is the only thing missing from Havards game. He's never poor but he goes from absolutely top class to just being reasonably good too often. His worst games are better than some players best games but he then shows you a glimpse of what he can achieve and you just want it more often. He's still young for a prop however and he has been impacted with injuries since that Warrington cup game last year. I think he will find that consistency at some point and you then have a regular international prop forward on your hands.
