I agree he's not a big name signing, but he would be a replacement of sorts for Aizue at least and would be an improvement on Mills and Watts.
no not really he reminds me of brendan hill who was very effective in his own way 20 or so years ago but the games moved on.
Look around at the top teams in the division, by that I'm talking leeds, saints, Hudds, probably Warrington next year and even Wigan still. With the exception of the big Feka at Wigan I can't think of another single prop who has moa's body shape can you?
As for him not being a big name, that doesn't come into it, I'll take your point about better than mills but he hasn't been within a sniff of the first team virtually all year. I suspect you haven't seen much of Watts, he's a totally different player and as a young player might not make it but if he does he'll fit into the modern type prop profile. Moa would be no substitute for aizue and I would hope we could do a lot better.
