Hi guys - how big is this guy?
And what sort of game does he play and can he play big minutes (too many play 20-30mins)?
What do you see as his strengths and weaknesses? (Unfortunately we don't seem to be able to coach out weaknesses so I hope he's not too many )
We need a big prop, not a converted second rower - which we've got a number of.
Realistically weve got Hill and Cooper as front ljne props witn Philbin in support, then we start to struggle.
Our coach will play his grandmother before he plays Akauola and Latu.
After that we've got 1 or 2 decent youngsters.

Hes a great player and you are very lucky to get such a talent

He’s a good tough youngster. We’ve got stacks of em

I see Lewis B has got a gig at Cas. Another young prop we lost.

Excellent young prop forward, and only going to get better. Big, strong, likes to run it in hard. We're going to really miss him because all of our other props are undersized.

We are the Top Rugby League Club for feeding players to the North!

We do not bring much to Rugby League though !

It would be great if he does make the mark.
The sport seems really short of good quality big props - and certainly no-one in Walmsleys league.

Rather he was making it in SL with us, tbh, I take no pleasure watching our promising youngsters leave for other sides, I find it gutting tbh.
