Real shame we missed out on hola would have been perfect but I’m happy we’re offering deals to lads like this. If we added some one like that maybe a young prop on loan and a depth winger, Aj towse? All of sudden we look a lot better Looked at Wigan reserve’s yesterday and it’s a sl standard pack we surly might be able to get one for the season Lads like who cm? The big hard running mold we need an explosive prop got some top grafters. Nick lui toso maybe? |

Look at their squad list for the season. It's conceivable that Dupree doesn't make the 17. They have 10 props, though Ellis has been put at number 13. Harvard and Byrne are 8 and 10. Thompson, Cooper and Mago also have numbers in the 17. I think Dupree was 19. Then there is still Hill, Nsemba, Eseh, and Chan. |

So we're not sure who but we're hoping the Wigan bargain basement will supply us once again.

Bargain basement? I'd swap any of the their props, except probably Chan, for Singleton, King or Ormonroyd. Ormonroyd was poor last year (I'm hoping it was because of a niggle), King is way more oo inconsistent and gives away a lot of penalties, and Singleton is an average hard worker. Then we have Sidlow, who's a career achampioship. Outside of that we have to play backrowers at prop, Wright (who I really like), Hellewell, and Partington.
Thompson, Cooper, Harvard, and Dupree have all played for England.
Byrne, Ellis, and Mago each offer more than our guys.
Hill and Nsemba will play for England if they continue to develop as the have, either way they have a higher ceiling, development-wise, than our props. Eseh is another player I think has a lot of potential, it's unfortunate for him that he was in a poorly coached Wakey team last year that held him back.
Chan, I haven't seen much of, but I'd still rather have a young hungry guy, like him in the team, than Singleton, who isn't going to get better (and has a lot of stupid penalties ok him), Ormonroyd, who has stagnated, or King, who can be brilliant, but most of the time is a liability.

Yes we get alot of players from their seasonal sales.
I can't recall, even on Total a post I disagreed with more BMD. All the best!

It is a good move but also kinda weird, he will definitely start so I’d imagine Ryan is back up. But doesn’t help the prop situation especially with the lack of English players

It’s being reported in the SMH as a 12 month deal.

Absolutely is, know it turned sour with Wests but he's their all time top try scorer in the NRL and is undoubtedly top, top class if we can get the best out of him then it's a belting piece of business. He knows how to finish that lad |

Things looking a lot brighter that's for sure but definitely need a prop or two still fingers crossed we get some in |
