Good news. I said way back that I thought he was progressing nicely. Welcome back Jack.

Common sense move, looks like the way this club will be run is already changing for the better.

Re: Croft back : Tue May 23, 2023 2:16 pm  

May as well, we were paying him anyway and he wasn’t getting a game in Australia. Works for everyone.

That could well happen. Croft has quite a big frame and not blessed with rapid pace. I have a feeling as he continues to mature he will be more of a second rower

Pratt is the better centre in my opinion but is only just coming through. Same applies to Law.
Croft is more seasoned so may get in ahead of them but not for long.
I wouldn't put him in second row. He's a sturdy centre but wouldn't be big at second row.

Depends if Langi fit too.

Croft played 3 games in oz, all on the wing!

Didn't realise he was on the wing. Interesting.

Happy with this. Croft has potential to be a good centre. I disagree about the speed/pace. He’s got a decent turn of pace and remember him last season chasing many a kick down and putting the opposing wingers under pressure.

He will go straight in at centre I would imagine.

He would also be a good centre in the Championship if worst comes to worst.
