Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.

Holmes at prop? He’s smaller than Clark and would be wasted in the middle surely?

According to the gospel of St Wiki you’re right. 2cm shorter and 6 kilo lighter (but the pic of him Iooks like it was taken when he was 17 so I’m not sure how accurate it is).

Kurt Sorensen, Les Boyd and Kevin Tamati were 3 of the bests props I ever saw play. I would give up a limb to watch them play for Wire instead of the signings we have made for prop over the last 12 months.
They were all about 5ft 7” to 5ft 8” and no more than 16st tops.

Today's internet winner.

I remember being stood in the the Time Square, and thinking "wow, Boyd's a midget"..... certainly didn't play like one. Proof alone that you don't need to be 6'4" and built like a proverbial one to be a prop. Let's not forget either, when Boyd toured with the 82 Invincibles, he was a second rower. People want them to be fast running 6"2' athletes.....he wasn't that, either.

No substitute for class.

Boyd could negate lack of true size by being squat, fearless and intimidating as well as taking the ball in like a freight train and possessing quick feet, hands and brains. How does Jason Clark make up for his lack of size? He's got none of the above.

Luke Yates is a prime example of not having to be a big dude to hit like a truck......unfortunately Clark is well below Yates level. Squad filler at best.
