What we will miss is an X factor style forward, we seem to have a lot of trundle buses who will make yards but we are missing a Hock/Hansen player who hits the gap rather than the man. Farrell can be that player but is easily bullied by bigger packs
we didn,t miss hock last season and is that a different Hanson who hits the gap,because the one we,ve had was not exactly known for his barnstorming runs in fact I would call him a trundle bus.
Hansen was much more than that, he always ran very good lines which put him on the shoulder of his defender he very very rarely ran straight at the man ala westwood style second row. The main strong point to Hansens games was the lines he ran

I think we should sign santa as a prop!!!

Think he is a big guy, Lighting Quick (he gets round the world in one night) and he already wears red and white.

I shall ask again, who was the Aussie prop who was a goal kicker during the early-mid 90's, for some reason i keep thinking of Glenn Lazarus but don't think it was him

Can't think of any Aussie prop being a goal kicker. Martin Ketteridge was Castlefords goal kicker when they smashed us in the Regal Trophy final.

Les Boyd used to use his feet on occasion.
Lee Crooks was a goal kicking prop.
