Quote ="vastman"I get the logic but it sure as hell makes the S/R selection a bit congested. I'm all for competition that's a heck of a lot of players competing for 3-4 places. Who moves out?
Kirmond
Horo
Ashurst
Arona
Anakin
Batchelor
Crowther

Agree we're well stocked in the second row and personally if you're looking for an ideal sized Prop it's Pauli, especially as he gets more fit and the weather improves.
Not one to question CC but we have Fifita, England, Hirst, Huby, and Baldwinson, plus Pauli, so it's not like they're not all going to get plenty of game time, especially as the season goes on. I can see the thinking of it, a bit how Salford used BMM last year but the back row is so well stocked this year. with the addition of Horo and Batch and Crowther being a year older.
Saying that could you imagine a pack that had Fifita, England, Huby, and Hirst as Props and Pauli in the back row, with Ashurst & Horo. Pretty formidable, especially when Randall comes back as well.
