If Yates has come into prop, why give Bullock a two year extension. When he can’t even make the match day roster. Even Burgess was vocal about Bullock been abit lackadaisical in and around training.

Don't remember seeing Yates play 2nd row in Superleague?

He hasn't got the speed to play their for Wire.

He has a decent defensive game, but he could be isolated and exposed playing a wide role to the skill and foot work of one-on-one defence.

His best position is 13 and he should play there for us with Currie playing second row.

Currie has played well at loose forward and doesn't deserve to be moved from there.

I think Smithies wasn't expected to be starting 13 for Raiders this year but Corey Horsborough missed the first few games and Smithies has performed very well. Even when Horsborough has been available, Smithies has still started.

Just watched the Dolphins/ Canberra game and Smithies had a good game. Now Nicholson’s desire is to be a 13 so unless they going to move Smithies he will have to settle at 2nd row or in NRL I don’t think he would be out of place at centre.
