Will Thurston be the starting 7 in 2013 at this rate? I'm not hinting he wont, I genuinely dont know. Because if not, he would really have anything else to acheive at rep level

Fitzgibbon?

Hes still playing in the back row isnt he?

Played prop at times and maybe in his latter years would be more suited to a role at prop.

Has propped plenty of times including for Oz once or twice i believe. Would rather he played in the back row though and we signed a beast of a prop. (or gave Moa a game to develop into one)

A prop these days and a good one too.

Whether Fitzgibbon plays prop or not, we would still be very light in quality in the propping department

We're short on quality in lots of departments !! Why should prop be any different to halfback and centre ??

If we have signed Fitzgibbon as a prop, I would be even more baffled about our recruitment than I already am. I don't think that he is a suitable answer to our backrow inadequacies but to sign a hard-working defensive backrower as our new prop would just beggar belief !!!

I never said prop was different to a centre or a halfback. We need a halfback desperately, and then a prop. We then need an experienced centre. But then again, Hall is never going to go anywhere under Agar, and I would be shocked if Agar goes seeing as the current board accept mediocrity nowadays so maybe any centre will do

Ermm Paliasena for me!
