Think Radders mentioned Ellis to prop. Do you think Crooks will stay, then? I think he's on his way out. Didn't see him on Saturday.

Not good enough or too good to bulk up?

If we can get a club to pay a fee he will be gone.

I wonder if Agar and Smith will want him to bulk up?

Agar never got Hall to bulk up.Agar must have the gift of the gab as how the hell has he ended up there

Atkins is 100kg, and 185 cm tall.
Bridge is 93 kg and 180 cm tall
Crooks is 88 kg and 190 cm tall.

They might do.

Can only see Ellis playing prop if we secure another 2nd rower, don't see the point otherwise.

Crooks is on the naughty step. Too many with poor attitudes been given an easy ride in the past.

Can they teach him to tackle though as Atkins can't tackle a salad and Bridge isn't much better

I wouldn't even wait for that, I'd have binned him off already. One good season and he thinks he's Greg Inglis.

Ellis will start next yr at 2nd row imo. Prop will be an option depending on injuries/form of props n the people pushing him n mini for back row spot. Think the prop thing radders has mentioned will more be within games next n will move to prop fully yr after

You don't like players being naughty do you

His father is making the situation worse blowing smoke up his !

Of course but then it's not your money is it?

And if he does become the next Greg Inglis, what then? You're happy that he was binned of due to his poor attitude; which is no doubt down to his advisers, who his dad is and is age.

I think he should be given a full season in the centre to see how he goes.

Quick question - do you think Crooks has the physique to make a top RL centre? Or the defensive qualities?
