Now he WAS a prop forward. Happy days.

| He's not as fit as he was when he was playing 13 for the Roosters. I see those pictures of him squaring up to Micky Mac and he looks in great shape compared to now.
As I've already posted I don't think he's playing too badly but there's no doubt he's got more to give. Him being fitter is a part of that imo.

| Do we think that we'll bring another prop in?
Our front line props of FPN, TT, Sutton and Navarrette are decent enough, but i wouldn't mind seeing another body brought in to cover / rest guys if needed. Even if we signed a run of the mill type forward who isn't anything spectacular it would at least be another body in the squad - Gil Dudson seems to be in a bit of decent form, could he have a 2nd chance perhaps?

I understand where you are coming from but IMO we the numbers in terms of props are ok with the guys you mentioned plus Bretherton and Lockers/J.Tomkins/Isa who can all drop in at prop once we have a full compliment of back rowers. I'd rather use game time on players who are going to develop and stay with us than ones we have already decided aren't good enough. They don't appear to be performing though, as they didn't this time last year to be fair.

I'd probably agree with that under normal circumstances, but with our current injury situation i just think we need one more established SL level player to take the load off everyone & give us more options.
Like you said there's players than can drop in at prop, but we aren't far off a situation where we might see Lockers playing at 6 and one more injury in the backline means Joel or Isa being moved out of the pack. When that's happened in the past we've seen Flower move to 13 or Sutton has played in the 2nd row. We can't simply do that with only four front line props.

Am I right in thinking Macauley Davies and Kyle Shelford are still out on loan? Maybe we should look at recalling them. Is Connor Farrell still at the club?

I'm not sure, but not disrespect to the lads you can't just throw young props in for an extended run. It will probably give them some confidence, but i don't think it would help the whole team out.

| Some great names being thrown about but with Williams and Tomkins in the marquee spots we're probably going to have to look closer to home or at some cheaper NRL options of we're signing a prop (or props).
Anyone know who's out of contract in superleague?
