Am I the only one who thinks its about time Cuthbertson actually stood up and played a good game as a normal prop? Never mind the offloads, we need grunt. Our most experienced remaining prop trying to play stand off is a luxury we can't afford.

Apparently, Cuthbertson was brought back a month early, and it's shown in his performances since his return, but I agree, I think he's getting in the way a lot of the time, and him trying to play in the halves is one of the reasons we look so disorganised.

Agreed, the question being has Brian Mac instigated this tactic.

And if McDermott hasn't told him to do it as much as i like Cuthbertson he should be dropped.

I know what you're saying, but reality does have to kick in at some point. Dropping our only recognised & experienced prop the week of a CC QF (our only chance of silverware left) probably isn't an option anyone would take for such a minor "offence".

Re: CC QF | Leeds Rhinos v Leigh Centurions : Mon May 28, 2018 11:24 pm  

Its not a minor "offence" - its not an offence at all. Just ridiculous that when we're down on big forwards our most experienced prop isn't actually doing the basics of his job. As for bringing him back a month early, if true then both BM and Cuthbertson are idiots and have learned nothing from 2016.
