The prop situation is odd. We knew we needed and stand off, centre/wing and at least one back row and in the main we have filled those positions well.
We were light in the pack last season and garbutt ping makes that worse yet we don't seem to have made any serious moves for new props. There must be a reason for this. Perhaps it's a lack of attainable quality so we are waiting it out but I wonder if, as someone has said, we are wanting to be mobile next season and play more in the backs?
we have made serious moves, we had the lad from Huddersfield lined up but he decided to saty there, or the players we were offloading in swap deal would not move there, we have been linked with other props as well. Garbutt hardly played and was a big earner and it seems universally accepted he had a poor attitude so not losing owt there.
yes we could do with another prop but as has been stated many times we need to offload a couple of other players first and they don't want to go. It may be mid season or 2020 before we can bring in another prop. but maybe Oledski Holroyd etc can take the opportunity.
