The lack of oomph comes from Davies - he never seems to have his heart in it. Adamson seemed shy to take the line on at times.
Spencer was a little quiet after some mistakes too.
Ambler, Tonks and Bracek did well.
Must admit I'm not Davies biggest fan, ok as a squad player but his knees are made if biscuit and won't be long before he's injured again.
Props are hard to come by in RL at the moment. Arguably the best British props in a generation have all gone to Australia where they'll see out most of their careers, unless they want to play rugby Union in bath or some other strange place. But there really aren't many about, Francis cummins tales of woe have been full of how he's been searching for front rowers, I'd imagine any who came available who teams like fax, fev, Leigh, Sheffield ectopic would look at Bradford would too.
Haven't Whitehaven, who have consistently produced decent props for years had a Frenchman and a PNGian propping for them?
Some Wigan fans were surprised to see Sam Brooks had left their club, and he's certainly got potential, but props don't come of age until they're a bit older anyway.
I'm starting to witter now, but the gist of my post is, we're kinds stuck with who we've got, robbo is back in a few weeks so hopefully given now long he's been out it'll have a similar affect to introducing a new signing to the team at this stage of the season
