Quote: vastman "Correct, though I reckon with the new rules that player is less important than in recent times. I'd say with Wilkes and Raleigh back we are average but our play the ball and quick distribution from the PTB is quicker than most which should even it out. That appears to be Agars tactics, very simple and if done right very effective. Likewise the big prop, he's only as good as his team, big yards are no good if the rest of the team can't exploit it.
There will of course be occasions when we are beaten in the pack but I have seen that happen when we had a bigger than average pack - it happens to the best.'"
Come on this was a friendly - same pack pretty much got kicked up hill and down t dale by catalans, if we are going to compete up front we need a bit of beef up front and 5 foot ten 15 half stone props are ok, but not when you are playing six foot one+ seventeen stone oposition, thought amor was mom yesterday, johnson worked hard - but in days to come we will need more size and strength in front row than what we currently have.
