Agree ! Fitz is basically a prop and let's face it, he's good enough to play anywhere but I was thinking more about the lack of backrowers if we were to move him or Lauaki (or both) upto the frontrow. Our backrow is as good as any squad in SL but take out Fitz and Lauaki and it starts to look very thin indeed. We need a big prop or a very good backrower.

I don't think that Prescott is the answer though. Not big enough, not good enough.

Take out one of them and it just means Washbrook to loose man, which is still his best position. Take out both, and as I say it's probably Burnett coming in. But yes, bringing someone in for the pack is the best option, and seems to be what the club are trying to do. Undecided either way on Prescott TBH, but it's a pretty thin market ATM.

if I talk about winning the lottery tonight, does that mean it will happen?

Agar is good at "talking", his actions are somwehat wanting.

When Agar talks, nobody listens or is interested in what he has to say

Well, apart from Clint Newton.

Yet Briscoe was our first choice centre for this year?

Disapointted we didn't sign Jake Emmitt from Saints who has just signed for Cas.

Looked a very good prospect when I have seen him.

Could of been the just the young prop we need.

Now now language.

So who would sign other than Prescott then, bearing in mind who is available and the fact we need money for other areas of the team too?

Personally I think our props will be Ogre, Moa, Radford plus Dowes or new signing. Lauaki will provide birst back up and then Fitz, that seems plenty to me.

I'd like to see Briscoe move eventually but not convinced next season is the right time, we have one of SL best wingers and I would like to see him play there for at least another season but perhaps in friendlies or if we draw a NL side in the CC then he could have a run out in the centres.

So in the event of only two injured forwards, we have a backrow of what ?? Whiting Burnett Washbrook ?

We don't have enough backrowers to be able to put Lauaki AND Fitz into the frontrow.

Two or three injured forwards and we won't have a pack left.

anyone heard any whispers of likely halfback targets in australia?.looks like gareth moore resigning for batley.hes name has been bandied about as a possible target from the championship.

yes,also british fullback

so why keep Tansey then?

Briscoe
