Cook, Hodgson and Ratu?

He is implying that we have already signed a prop.

Have you! Who is it?

Since when have they been props?

I agree I wouldnt play Matt Cook at prop either...

Indeed.

Was mainly enquiring as to what your expectation levels were?

For example, would you be disappointed to sing 2 Crossmans?

Are you hoping for 2 internationals and what will be the mood in the rovers camp if they arent of that calibre?

As he's more of a recognised back rower I agree with you.

Although I do expect him to play the odd game there.

As he has proven with his recruitment thus far for Rovers, Justin doesnt sign players purely on the basis that they are internationals. It is a policy that has served us well so far.

What a bizarre line of questioning! As long as Rovers sign at least 1 SL standard prop for next term I will be confident of us putting out a competitive side most weeks. That should allow us to challenge for a top 6 spot - this should be our aspiration every season from now on.

If JM signs them, I will trust his judgement. He has got a few wrong over the years (Gareth Price springs to mind as a prime example) but far more have proved a success.
