Kibula is the sort of prop we never really seem to produce. Someone with size, footwork, strength and excellent handling ability. It's worth taking a risk on someone like that and giving them a bit of time to develop. Most of the props we produce seem to offer the exact same thing so I think it's a good idea to give a little more time to someone who could potentially be something different.It might be a long shot, but the reserves gives the club the perfect opportunity to give a bit more time to players. It will hopefully generate a bit of competition among the fringe forwards too. I'd rather the club keeps on more of the older second rows and props as that's where you need more depth and where it's harder to replace with U19's (or U18's as it may be next year).
