It's a shame Anakin isn't a bit bigger as he'd make a great prop, sadly he's small even for a back rower.'"
I don't, it's not what he's best at and like I said would only be if there is injuries but I remember him taking it in on the 1st, 2nd or 3rd tackle down the middle on numerous occasions and making good yards against the oppo's props.

Occasionally he could do it but he wouldn't be my first choice - I'd probably use Trout, I know he's smaller but he's more direct and quicker to his feet. I honestly don't remember him doing it down the middle, nor would I expect him too.

| Quote ="asmadasa"Exactly. If Southern could be considered for such a role,( didn't think he was 6ft to be honest more 5ft 9-10)? then if real needs must then why not Mariano at prop as last resort who is genuinely big and strong.
If Ali & Kirmond are firing at back row and Wilkes & Raleigh are injured (former second rows?) then should we seriously consider going into the loan market to a get a substandard prop? And leave Mariano either on the bench or out of the 17 when we have Walshaw that could be the second row on the bench instead? We need some flexibility in the squad with it being smaller and another prop is definately now needed to avoid this discussion becoming possible reality once we're into the season.
Who will it be now to replace James as it is believed to be British target prop that Agar is looking at according to Express? Any ideas/rumours?

What about Richard Moore on a 1/2 year deal? He didn't seem to be getting game time at Leeds and didn't feature in the play offs.

I think you really mean if ONE of our props is injured one of the eight listed as back row forwards could fill in.'"
My point was, worst case scenario and if we didn't have two props to start then I'm sure we could find temporary cover.

Point taken - let's hope it doesn't happen.

| Good luck to him did a good job when he came on. We defo need another prop now. I think its more of a shame Lillycrop went he was the one for the future and would have liked to see him with a few first team appearences !

| You'd be better off Bringing big Stu out of retirement for a few games, if needed.
What do you all make to Kirmond not even getting a sniff of the Knights team, he looked a real handful for you lot last season.

| Apparently Agar says we are in the market for a new prop, so probably has a replacement lined up

| Will be no shock if we sign Richard Moore or Keith Mason plus an overseas prop with John being off loaded

Would be happy with either of those two to be honest- would be good to see competition for places!

| Matt James - another one that didnt really get a chance. Ah well if we have someone better lined up then fair enough but were gonna be screwed if we have any injuries, if not

| He obviously got a chance in training and in the 20's and on that evidence, the coach decided to release him; given the outcome of RA's decision-making around the squad last season, I'm prepared to accept that he knows best.
It will be interesting to see if we bring in another prop to add depth.

| Kirmond would be worth a different discussion thread but he should have been in the knights squad. Was the last serving Wakefield player to get into the England/GB team Gareth Ellis?
