That’s great, just when we should be looking for a prop in a higher division. There’s nothing like ambition.
Neil Cowie ???
Not many like him have made the step up. We need a ready made prop/leader.

Wigan have appointed a new head scout I know well & knows a good player when he sees one ( Maybe )
That’s got to be a step in the right direction, who is the new chief scout?

I honestly could be a scout. Seriously. I know a good player when I see one.

You've rarely steered us wrong in the past DD
Scouts generally look at youth players from 13 up.
They don’t really get involved in the recruitment of senior players.

I agree, there are exceptions to the rule. But we need a top prop not a guy who needs to be developed. I think we will see recruitment in front row and second row next season.

I thought the discussion was about getting props from the championship? Walmesley was one, whether he's now a spent force or not. I wish we'd have had him for the past 6 or 7 years.
Chris Hill also started at Leigh, I believe, and is still a good un.
