I agree with that, he's been a great player for us. He gets some stick for being lazy but the metres and moments of skill he brings are invaluable in a pack that's not brilliant in general.

I think TP could still do a job at saints next year but he needs two good props bringing in to accompany him. He's at he point where IMO hes a bench player. He needs to be spelled more but I honestly think if he was used better hes be devastating off the bench.

We need to hard working tough props alongside him and LMS. Clough is another player that IMO is a squad type player and not really a starting prop.

Do you think TP would stay. ?

I'd like him to.

As you say, as bench player, for impact. But I had heard that he was more for going home for family reasons. I've not even heard rumours of contract negotiations being discussed?

Very much doubt he'd stay. We struggled last time to keep him. He was never going the wolves. It was stay at saints or go home. We give him big big deal to stay.

If imagine we will have a Massive amount of cap space free next year.

I think TP is past it. He's not aggressive and he only makes metres sporadically. He can be lazy in defence and all in all he brings very little to the party. We hardly ever see him now making yards with opposition players hanging on like limpets as we did when he first came to the club.

Time to move on IMO. We want some younger, aggressive props who can run over the opposition.

I'm not holding my breath on that one. Knowing Saints, the whole lot will be signed up for another two years.
