I've been reading this forum for a while now, and everyone seems to agree that we need a big prop. I agree, but which one? I'd like to see who you lot would sign
Personally, I'd love to see us make a bid for Jared Waerea Hargreaves. If we can control his temper and keep him in good form, he'd be a class signing for us. He's huge, runs hard every time and is a solid tackler. He's out of contract for 2016, too.
Would fit our enforcer role nicely.

After the way the club's treated Ben flower we'll be lucky to get the best out of him.
Can't see anyone joining mid season.
Have I missed something here?I thought they had treated him very fairly?
Many people were annoyed at the way the club just hung him out to dry. I think his options are limited and time out could have helped him to grow up a bit.
IMO a few more could do with that.
My worry is the team he comes back into. At the moment there seems to be little discipline.

Problem is and it might be nothing but the club took whatever was dished at Flower and bent over for it. There was no siege mentality no they have got it in for us and he will get banned whilst the first direct contact was by LH and he got nothing for instigating the issue.
Whatever people think of Mourinhio or Ferguson they protected their players even when in the wrong. We allowed the RFL and papers to hammer Ben Flower whilst letting LH get away with it.
Problem we have is there is an obvious issue at the club we have a good squad yet we are playing bottom table standard rugby and tbh behind the scenes its starting to feel like it was under Milward.
1 bad game every few weeks is one thing but we have not played well this season including pre season. Something is wrong atm.
It would take more than a prop to change things, I thought Moose and Club were excellent last night, Larne Patrick tackled his heart out, but the team doesn't have a move in them its back to the Noble days of the ball along the line rugby, and HE GOT SACKED FOR THAT.

Lee Mossop was immense last night, Hull struggled to pull him down, very pleasing to see and remaining injury free Moose can only get better with improved match fitness having spent so many months out of the game.
