Make your mind up.
First you accuse me of a simplistic approach of suggesting a prop would solve the problem now you are telling me if we get better players it would solve the problem. You are contradicting yourself.
I have never said players were robots and we already have some good players several of whom are Internationals yet we still play poorly.
My point is simple. We need a prop as part of fixing what is wrong but even if we signed a top class prop unless the team plays a different way then we won't see much improvement.
By playing a "different way" I mean eradicating the problems I referred you to that Cruncher summed up. To save you the trouble of looking for that post here it is:

Stick a top class prop into the team and continue to make those mistakes then we will not see much of an improvement and the person responsible for sorting the above out is Noble.
