Definately played most of his games at second row. Not flashy, but a grafter

[quote="Spookisback":udktojde]Not sure I agree PT I think that versatility is a key component in players these days, Indeed one only has to look at Kiwi and Kangaroo selection to see that many plyers are selected for rep football playing in positions that are not their usual club positions. As for Storton... I figured we had signed him as a lock forward/ middle, which is where (I think) he plays his best football, but I guess we will see on Friday where he plays.[/quote:udktojde] That's a different thing. Playing a top quality player at International because they play well anywhere and you have another top quality player to backfill, and you have a temporary gap for one game is not the same as playing a second row at prop at club level. If we have an injury then of course. And versatility is very important for our team. But if you have to consciously play a second row at prop in the first game of the season, or consistently through the season...you need another prop.

Absolutely criminal how he was played at prop for such a prolonged period. Even though he had hands like cow udders at times he was good at second row and barely average at prop yet we continued to prop him. Truly bizarre that was.
