But you think washy could cover at 9 ? Don't see anytime he's ever played there

Washy has covered there a couple of times and it may be his chance of a first team start next season. Washy always looks better playing in the middle of the park and has decent distribution so may well be worth a shot at hooker.

Is Motu Tony still looking for a club? He may be worth a pay as you play deal.

I would move Fitz to prop regardless of Westerman signing or not. If he does sign then great if not I would give the role to Whiting. Didnt PaulM suggest that Agar was planinng on using Whiting at 13 and changing the style of his pack for next season? I would welcome that change!

Except Fitz is not a prop and Washbrook would be too slow off the mark from dummy half and distribution too slow,

How did fitz play differently to our props last season?

Washys got the off season to practice.

He has played at prop in Aus, at all levels too.

IMO Fitz plays exactly like a prop and not like we need a 13 to play......an extra play maker. A tactic we have used having 3 props on pitch at same time is why we are so boring and down the middle 1 man garbage predictable team. Hope that makes sense cos 3 props doesnt.

I'd rather johnny whitely played 13 at least he can pass further than 5m.

With Fitz as out n out prop I'd gladly have him another year or two possibly polaying majority of match, using extra strike player on bench instead of 2 props all time

just think Fitz would be wasted at prop.
Washy is just not quick enough for me to play 9.

But wherever he is named he plays like a prop. Be it 9,10,11,12,13.

He's filled in there a couple of times and didn't look out of place.

He would be more like Moore/Clarke than a Roby/Houghton type player. Could be a decent option. Danny certainly can't play the full 80 mins each week.

What about using Whiting at 6? He's played there before, and had the number 6 shirt in 2006 I think it was?

Fitzgibbon would play winger if you asked him to such is his commitment, hes a tall bloke but hasn't got the bulk of a natural front rower imo, combine that with his age and the fact that he hasn't ever played there on a regular basis and its a big ask for him to take on the best props super league has to offer week in week out.

that was the point i was trying to make, a massive ask imo from him to play prop week in week out, dont think his body would be up to it. ,

me too, would rather promote an u20 to the squad as a fifth prop than play fitz there.
