Not signing at least 2 experienced props over the off season, instead adding another lightweight 2nd rower hurt us badly.

I agree and that`s why he looked good at Saints with the props they had and like I`ve said before he will unsettle the opposition and make a bucket load of tackles something Goudemand and Donaldson don`t do.
Comparing Bentley with O`Connor is wrong as they play in different positions.

O’Connor came through at 13 and has played alongside Ackers at times, and is a similar body type to Bentley.

Stopped being banned?? He hasn’t played for months that why.

Anyway I’m not getting too far into that can of worms again; we’ll see what Blease makes of it all. I think we can all agree the overall balance of that Leeds pack isn’t right.

To be fair to Bentley his discipline did improve in his last outings, and I remember at the start of the season a lot being made of the fact that he'd given up alcohol. If he continues to knuckle down when he returns he should be in the 17 most weeks.
