Agree, it’s a big season coming up for Masi.
As he came through I was hopeful for him. He looks a great athlete, tonnes of enthusiasm and happy to do his workload. However, he rarely breaks a tackle.
If we are going to look to step up to the next level and properly compete within the Top 4, we’ll need more than that.

sometimes your face doesnt fit but i think the main problem with Bienek was lack of confidence and it didnt help not being selected. Last had the opportunity to bring Bienek in several times but chose not to when he could have played him off the bench surrounded by senior players which would have raised his confidence knowing he had some punch around him. I have no doubt Powell will develop him into the powerful,pacey S/L front row we should have been seeing

I would handle the not breaking a tackle if he made up for it with having good body positioning and getting us a quick PTB but he doesn't even do that, he gets dominated most tackles and puts us under so much pressure. You've only got to look at the Wigan game in the CC where he got bullied off the pitch.

Let's hope so, must have soem serious cap space with the players leaving, we will run with a smaller but better quality squad and use more youth players as back up like Wigan and Saints do.
Obviously someone at the Mail has written a story probably along the lines of yesterday mornings about us getting close to Coaching appointment based on being in the know about what is happening and someone upstairs has pulled it at the last minute. Really Interesting though to speculate why isn't it! Any season ticket announcement is going to need a boost!

It’s not like the Mail to worry about being factually correct so there might be something to this.
