I’m still wondering who were the great props that we have missed out on (and are/were available and likely to be open to a move to England).
Great props I'm not so sure but props who would have improved our match day squad considerably for the past season or longer:
Ligi Sau
Paasi
Chris Satae (my favourite of the lot)
Matt Prior (short term but he was good this season)
Sam Kasiano
It's not a huge list but any one of those would have made our pack a lot stronger. There are other props in superleague that have a bright future as well, I really like Will Maher and Matty English, both would be fantastic signings. I suspect we will be scraping the barrel and handing a poor pick a 2 year contract which means we miss out on good props who are off contract at the end of next season as well.
It's not all doom and gloom, mulhern has been a good signing, maybe Butler can get a better chance under Powell as well and Philbin can improve back towards his best as well. I don't mind the idea of Bullock signing but it's a bit of a gamble we need a proven quality prop to replace Hill IMO otherwise letting him leave was a massive mistake.
