If some of the above is true I'd expect a press release within the next week or so possibly...unusual though as MC said in Yorkshire Radio interview that no quota spots left and would have to look for 'English, French or even Russian prop'....
It's a real shame that Anthony Tupou couldn't take over from where Ali Lauitiiti left off but as already said physically he appears to have some sort of serious hip injury issue walking with a permanent limp.
As it turned out big Ali played second grade at New Zealand Warriors last season and Tupou showed only glimpses of what he could do with ball in hand although defensively he always appeared very strong. His try at home to Catalan coming off the bench when the team were down 0:26 where he ran onto the ball extremely hard carrying 3 over the line was one of those rare moments.
