Maybe we will see Gannon doing the odd spell at prop.

Mik is set to sign a contract extension, apparently

Good, best Prop we have produced in years has decided to remain with the club. Now time to take his game up a level under a much better coach than he has been used to for most if not all of his career so far.

Yup. Big year needed from all the props this year I think. Mik has been steady for the most part,Holroyd has been allover the place or injured and Lisone just hasn't done enough. Hoping Palasia and Jenkins along with a fit/ full preseason for the other three will make a big difference. If Miller/Hall/Handley can keep making the ground early on to help out and Newman / Sivo adding more strike it might finally be back to the play offs. Still worried about Frawley/7 our kicking game and leadership hasn't really changed and was very sub par at points in the last few years. At least we have Connor as a back up. Sinfield should be on a long loan with recall from game 1.

The rest of the out of contract players, for differing reasons, are harder to make a retain/let go decision on. I do feel that Frawley and Lisone would both have to play out of their respective skins in order to make a case for staying given the shortage of quota spots. Here's hoping both Holroyd and Gannon come back firing on all cylinders and make it an easy decision to make.
