If were still looking.... : Wed Feb 18, 2009 9:25 pm  

If were still looking to make another signing after Winterstein, whats the view on the position that still needs to be covered.

Above all else i would say, Prop. With RM out on a long term basis i think we miss the impact of a big man upfront. RB is doing a job for us but that's about as much as i could ever really see him doing, filling a gap.

Please correct me if im wrong but is that us up to our quota on overseas players now (should FW get his visa). If so who is or could be on the market.

Does anyone know of anyone half decent in the national league that might be able to fit what were looking for?

Tony Tonks at Fev is a good prop forward and has good pedigree having come through the ranks at Bradford. His main problem though is discipline, he's an old fashioned prop who likes it rough and tough and he's a bit of a niggler.

Depends on how fit you think Sculthorpe will be in the season, if you get a full season of decent minute on the field then you could afford to replace him with another Mooresque player, ie an impact prop. If we think Scully is going to be hit and miss having a solid Stosic front rower who is going to be out on the field is probably the way to go.
