Given that this is an area that we need to strengthen, I have just read that Kyle Trout is without a club.

Could he do a good job for us?

Selling Golden Gamble tickets?

So from last season 2 of our props in koppy and naverette are now plsying championship rugby when they arguably where better than tangata and green who we kept

Re: Prop Forwards : Sun Jan 10, 2021 3:09 pm  

But Green was still under contract and we can’t magically ‘just lose him’ despite what you think about contracts and releasing players. I would imagine our budget is creaking this year given the 280k rebate to sky amongst other things and I would imagine that both Kopczak and Navarrete were in the ‘medium to high’ category of earners although like everyone else, I’m purely guessing on that point.

You are just saying that to make your point.
No one has been shouting to keep Navarette and Kopi was clearly at the end of his career.
Tangata is a solid player and Green has missed a lot of games. He can clearly play but we need to make sure he is fit and ready.

Green us an ok player but as you said injuries are unfortunately an issue he as hardly played in last few years and injuries tend to be worse as players get older lets just hope he does get to play a run of games.
Tangata while not wznting to knock a player if been honest he not solid he championship standard player you only need to look st things like the LMS try whst some blamed young baily for but he was there and lms ran over top of him

I stick by my original koppy znd naverette would be better than green and tangata...but fo get thers a budget to keep to
