| Quote Mild Rover="Mild Rover"Cook's problem has been that he is an out and out second rower, and Galea and Newton both do long minutes. He'd have been even more knacked if Mason had stayed.
The oft made comparison with Netherton ignores the fact that JN is a prop.
Quins will hopefully be a better fit for the kid - he is a good player.'"
Netherton may well be playing prop but he is totally ineffective in that position. |

agree with you there GG, hope the new coach realises that nev is purely a tackling 2nd row and uses him as such instead of flogging the dead horse that is playing him at prop! |

Horne is set to be loose forward, Murrell is in talks with Wakefield and Salford.

Which is then an argument to play Wheeldon, Watts, Lovegrove or whoever else misses out in any given week.
While Netherton's stats are not good - but there is no stat for speed of ptb, either when he's been tackled or from the tackles he makes. And that is what allows us to get a roll on or get a defensive line set and then up quickly.
If our other bench prop was a tackle-busting, offloading, defensively suspect, knackered after 10 minutes type, then JN would balance that well. Our problem, IMO, is that we've become all bread and no jam. |

Netherons ptb speed is no quicker than any of the players you mentioned there so let's put this non existent argument to bed right now. All three players mentioned plus Taylor are much better front rowers than Jase both in terms of effectiveness and technique. |

No...

...but, assuming they are close to their best and fit I wouldn't have Netherton in the 17. I'll be interested to see what a new coach makes of it. And how he sees a couple of younger players who started out as back-rowers and are used as props by JM. |

I'm not so sure about Horne, although I've not seen a lot of him to be fair & he certainly ran riot against us the other week. It may be that my opinions of him are based on his FC days, so hopefully he has come on leaps & bounds since then.

Who is signing these new players, a new coach or your chairman?

Your guess is as good as mine. As the new coasch hasn't yet been announced, I'm assuming the chairman?
Probably wrong though, I usually am. |

Probably our chairman. Like ive said before this season the new coach will be given a squad to work with and told "earn the right to build your own team". We have 14 players OOC at the end of 2012, if he has earned the right, he can build his team then. |

I was just thinking if it was your new coach it could point to who it was based on the players he wanted.
