Surely the definition of injury prone is that the player currently picks up injuries and struggles to shake them off, not that he's been injury free in the past

Possibly, but then you would need to define how long a previously injury prone player must remain uninjured before no longer being classed as injury prone.

Eorl Crabtree to HKR next year . Big name NRL signing on way also .

The point remains that Morgan should definitely be looking at signing a big prop. Apart from Vella, you've got Fozzard (decreasingly effective), Wheeldon (OK but more workhorse than impact), Mills (squad player at best), Aizue (dropped), and Watts (not played this season). And Lovegrove. Ship out 2 of Watts/Aizue/Mills and get a class big prop.

Crabtree is contracted to Hudds until the end of the 2010 season so I cant see that coming off.
Justin has stated two weeks ago that Rovers are talking to two Australian based players so that is not exactly news.

Everyone should no by now that contracts dont actually mean to much nowadays, if a decent player has a big bust up or doesnt want to play there you can safely say he will be taken on by another SL team.
As an example --- Foxy has just signed a new contract; but if he turned around and said i dont want to play for HKR and had a massive barny with Morgs or Hudge they would ship him out right away, i for one would be happy to get rid as i wouldnt want someone who isnt committed to the club been here.

Surely rob crossland will dip his hand in his pocket if the right player becomes available?

Already has

Amazing what a packet of wrigleys and a crumpled bus ticket will buy you these days
