Be better if Walker went there and we had both Navarette and Battye.
True but maybe it's a wedge issue, Naverette may have been on a good wage at Wigan and daft as it sounds maybe London can match it and we can't but yeah a good idea.
You got to feel for Walker, worst season ever to move to any club, the re-emergence of Jowitt and a generally crap 10 match run to start your career but sadly he is now the elephant in the room.
Hopefully Eddie Battye will sign a 3 year Super League contract and Last may know of a Hull squad player looking for a SL opportunity which could take the squad to 7 specialist props. Brad Fash or Matongo possibly? Only played a handful of games last season...

No but we’ve seen him, there have been a lot of stout props who’ve done well just not so much for us. Hell if he’s good enough I’m happy, Belly and JT were good enough. I suppose we’ve got used to these seven foot monsters.
Also tbf it’s taken Battye ten years to get to SL standard, it takes a lot for a smaller man to make it, you really have to be hard as nails. I’ve not seen this lad so I couldn’t really comment either way.

I’ll leave that up to the coaching staff.
You did only seem to mention his height though i dont know nothing bout this lad and not saying hes could be good for us just dont think height comes into it hence battye only small as is arouna.the gamble for me is he good enough for sl we had championship players who have gone well but some that aint but like you say its up to coaches fo decide who right for us and in our budget

You’ve not been on this forum long. Some posters on here have branded much bigger players ‘midgets’ so there is some history. His lack of inches won’t go down well with some.
All the same I stand by the point that smaller forwards need to be a cut above to handle the bigger players. He may be spot on for all I know but when you go down the tick list for a prop he’s on the small side. It’s not prejudice it’s physics. You know the saying, the bigger the are the harder the fall, well I tend to believe the other version, the bigger they are the harder they hit.
So maybe he is up to the job but I suspect it’s academic tbh.
