Could someone (simply please otherwise I won't grasp it) please explain to me what difference four props on the bench makes to a team?
Thanks.
Props tire more quickly, especially on a muddy pitch, and it's always good to be able to interchange them more often. The gamble is that if there's an injury to one of the backs, there's no replacement available.
Imagine, say, having McIlorum, Prescott, O'Carroll & Hansen on the bench, and then Calderwood picks up an injury.
It's a risky strategy, but sometimes worth taking.

Too true fitzy.
Thank you GeoffN. I have always wanted to know that. It has confused me every time I have seen it written or heard it spoke about but never had the chance or forgotten to ask.

Ok, right.
Did anyone see tonight's game. If so, please say what their opinions are of Bentham.
As I have said in my original post, I thought he had a superb game. I think he has improved MASSIVELY Phil Bentham.
He used to be the Klein/Ganson/Silverwood standard, but now he is Ben Thaler standard.
Could have blown up for a HECK of a lot more than he did tonight but chose to let play go on.
Well done Mr Bentham.

Thought Bentham had a decent game and wasnt really noticed much whic indicates that he had a good game. I thought leeds were poor and Bradford seemed really fired up for it and played well. Leeds need to sort out their plays from the scrum because i think it was 2 tries they conceded because of errors from their scrum.
