Not inspired by this but if he’s a squad player next season I can live with that. Would go very well in championship games f we do go down. Really need to start bringing in some younger blood with quality now as at the moment we’re just re-signing players who got us in to this mess and older players from other clubs. No qualms with griffin he’s quality but he’s ageing now like the rest of our back row.

Very difficult to compare guys from different eras but if forced I would say Bill Ashurst had a greater repertoire of skills than the other two, giving him just the edge. At their peak btw.

I would say Solomona was the same level but just in a modern era.
Ellis was immense but not comparable in skill. His kpi was physical power and effort.

I was thinking of Bill's kicking game as a major plus that neither of the others had.

Not in his time with us but I’d say at one point Ellis was probably the most skilful second row forward on the planet.
