Had been strongly rumoured, so we'll have to wait and see if we get another much needed prop forward for 2018.

For me, FPN since his arrival:
Outstanding - zero games
Pretty good - maybe 5 games, say the last two, plus perhaps three last season.
Pretty ordinary - all the rest.

Perhaps we are about eight props short at the moment?

His best game was against Warrington last year imo, when Ben Flower got sent off and we came back and won 28-35. I thought he was outstanding on that day.

The props were doing good at the start of the season......they were fit and being spelled....... i cant stop thinking that we are wasting a sub with Powell on the bench.....i like powell but i prefer mac at hooker......i think we could improve as a team with an impact hooker........ maybe powell starting in the halves and tommy being an impact bench hooker? Just a thought

I think we're better off with Powell than another prop on the bench. Cover for very important positions and I still think he's overall playing better than McIlorum, the odd big hit aside.
Gerrard wouldn't have been a bad squad player, I think some are underestimating him. However, I do thing we need to be looking at someone with maybe a bigger leadership personality in the group anyway so no huge loss.
