Not sure how true it is but there reports by certain journalists on social media we are signing rob butler from Warrington

Re: Prop : Sun May 08, 2022 11:25 am  

Saw this earlier. Apparently we've signed him until the end of next season.

Re: Prop : Sun May 08, 2022 11:41 am  

Well, if we have signed him, welcome aboard Rob!

Re: Prop : Sun May 08, 2022 12:08 pm  

On paper that’s a very good signing..

He’s a big unit at 6’3’’ 17.5 stone.

He’s the right age.

He’s a prop.

He’s a point to prove and a long way from home so needs to get this right.

No guarantees but these signings tend to work well for us.

Getting a good nucleus of the London 2019 relegation side together, up to four now i think.

To be fair he was a promising young prop back then but has stagnated since. Hardly played a game since though thanks to a mixture of covid, injuries and non-selection so unsurprising. Hopefully it will pay off but a big ask to come in and make a major difference from the get go.

Pitt’s battye sid butler - great championship pack , but as the fatuous five aren’t likely to be playing (in the most important game of the season) a welcome set of legs

Hope he works out

Re: Prop : Sun May 08, 2022 12:52 pm  

So could be

Jowit
Johnson
Hall
Lune
Murphy

Gaskell
Bowes

Butler
Hood
Battye
Ashurst
Batch
Crowther

Whitbread
Kay
Aydin
Sid

Least Willy won’t have many selection dilemmas for the game as it looks like we probably only have 17 players available for the game

Re: Prop : Sun May 08, 2022 12:55 pm  

Never given an extended run at Warrington, just the odd match.

Hope he can fulfil the potential at Wakefield, that he showed at London.
