And which of our second rowers would he replace ?

Bit of an expensive luxury to leave on the bench.....but i'm sure he's got used to getting paid while sat on his @rse these past six months

Hasn't received one penny from Hull, Lauaki though is a different matter

Would walk into Rovers side.

Doubt you would have the salary cap and quota space though.

I'd expect him to sign for Souths on a long term deal.

TBF i'm not sure his style of play would suit Rovers. At the moment Rovers have two very skillfull running back row forwards to compliment their expansive game and creative halves.

Don't see how Crocker would fit in, in all honesty.

A second row like Crocker (are there any others) would walk into any SL team, and any adjustments the team needed to make would be well worth it. Question is, who would you drop, as both our first choice guys have a great partnership on the go.

Wouldn't want him. Great player but his motives for coming over here at this stage of his career are questionable IMO. Also quite happy with the backrowers we've got.
