Corey Hall not in the Luke Gale Testimonial suggests the injury rumours on him may be correct.

Just seen that and thought the same …….. welcome Nene

Sam Stone could be a real acquisition. Would improve us imho and rotation between Storton, Nikotemo and Stone would be excellent with Vagana and Griffin options too.

It would also free Vagana up to focus on propping.

Sam Stone about to hit his best years too.

I know Sangare didn’t rip it up at Leeds but I think he would be solid pickup for rotation in forwards and a project.

Scott in the team suggests he doesn't have the serious injury as rumoured take it all with a pinch of salt until the club makes official announcements

My thooughts too

Storton has played a bit of prop too. He's another option there if needed.

He has played a few there but most games I watched last season he featured on the edge and played well there. I’m guessing that’s where we will use him.

Looking forward to seeing him play. It’s good we have versatility in the squad too.

Yes let's not fall into the playing people out of position thing.
He's a good quality second row. Let's play him there

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.

Watching a handful of KR games this season he was second row every one of them I watched and played very well. He tends to come off the bench and play an impact edge second row role when he’s not starting. He has played some prop in previous years but the looks filling in but I’ve only seen him play second row so can’t really say like you it’s his best position.

Looking forward to seeing him though. He’ll add some quality and he’s a very robust player.

He

Definately played most of his games at second row.

Not flashy, but a grafter

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.
