How many props do you have - Graham, LMS, Perry, Puletua, maybe Clough at a push? Much better than ours, but 3 get injured and you're struggling.
We've got Clinton, Vella, Netherton, Wheeldon, Lovegrove, Watts, Taylor, Newton at a push and Beaumont could fill a bench spot at least (and if Tonga hadn't decided that 2011 was a good time to dabble in democracy, we'd still have Mason!). Not as good, but much more numerous - we could lose 3 and still pick a decent quartet. You pay your money, you take your choice. Tbf, we've maybe overdone it the other way.
Although the likes of Taylor, Cox and Watts have all played in alot of the same U20's games you wouldn't have thought it after yesterdays performance they where like season'd pro's.
Quote:This was an U20's game in which we hammered Warrington.
Hull KR: Craig Hall; Nick Johnson, Chris Heil, Liam Salter, Sam Bowring; Kristian Bell, Jon Gay; Richard Beaumont, Joe Gay, Scott Taylor, Jordan Cox, Aaron Ollett, Liam Watts. Subs. Jordan Lee, Dave Petersen, James Green, Loyd Ofori.
Big things also expected of Aaron Ollett who has played in the U20's most the year yet is only 17. Another cracking back rower coming off the production line.
