But he's a second rower and I'm stuck on that point. He said we were signing a forward and we haven't? We've signed someone who plays second row naurally. Why did he not say a second rower that will play forward, he had my hopes up then.

again hes thinking about next season and this moves gives him the option to put fletch in the front row which is were i think he will play him

Which is what i said would happen with fletcher last week, think the same will happen with tickle, then we can have guisset, fletcher and tickle alternating between the two

[MrsLam]

Was Fletcher not also a second rower?

Errr...there are normally six forwards on a team? 3 front row forwards, 2 second row forwards, one loose forward?
Yeah, I was hoping for a prop too!

He is but given his size and experience, i thought he'd be pushed into the front row. I think guisset made a good transition from second row to front row.

[MrsLam]

Was thinking of Richard Fletcher not Bryan, got mixed up there.

yes and if u read my ealy post he his on the case with a english prop but under the secret code act

Has to be better than our last loan off Leeds! Wonder if they're feeling some salary-cap pressure, offloading McD and Botham?

Silly moi! Getting too carried away tonight. A prop would have been more useful. We've got, Scully, Prescott (out), SeuSeu, Guisset and Hargreaves at the mo. Suppose if Botham can step it up a bit he can play at prop, someones already said he's bigger than SeuSeu in weight.
