If the worst case scenario happens and Moa leaves, we will only have four recognised props in Cusack, Dowes, O'Meley and Lauaki (forgetting the SR argument for now).

Surely this isn't enough and we would have to look for a British one anyway ??

I realise that Fitzgibbon or Radford COULD play there but that, for me, would be madness. Fitz is a world renowned SR and Radford offers nothing in attack or go-forward.

So if we were to lose O'Meley or Lauaki (or both ) where does our go-forward come from Mr Agar ???

Radford shouldn't be at 13. Washbrook should be. I'd use Radfird as cover for prop/SR.

We don't even need radford any more.

I'd keep him, but he's well down the pecking order. He's decent cover for the forwards, which is good considering our injuries the past few years.

2nd rowers/ LF's - Fitz, Manu, Tickle, Burnett, Washbrook, Whiting, Turner. Do we really need Radders as well?

How did he play this previous week? I only caught glimpses on the highlights.

i didnt go to the game but league express had him as second top player in the game, according to their medal points system

Yes, but the league express also have Michael Dobson down as player of the year in their points system and we all know how average he is....

Wouldn't be surprised to see Yeaman play more in the back row as some of the youngsters progress. Both Hall and Briscoe have better ball skills than Yeaman. Don't understand the anti-Radford rants and I think we'll see better when the captaincy is relieved from him.

Looked at fault for two tries.

1 - 5: Tansey, Calderwood, Raynor, Tuffour, T. Briscoe, Hall, Yeaman, J.Briscoe.

6 & 7: Horne, Long, Turner.

Hooker: Berrigan, Hougton.

Prop: O'Meley, Cussack, Dowes, Lauaki, Radford.

2nd Row: Manu, Tickle, Fitzgibbon, Burnett.

Loose: Washbrook, Whiting.

Looking at that, I don't think we need Moa as much as we need a top quality back, of which no Fed Trained ones are available that I know of. We've been crying out for a centre since Ritchie Barnett Snr, and I dont think Hall and Briscoe are really just yet to help us challenge.

IMO we shouldn't be using a quota spot for the next two seasons on what will be a 5th choice prop. If he was fed trained, I'd be happy to sign him, but we've got to use the overseas quota wisely.
