Pleased to see the club are making changes, his discipline record is a concern but at the same time our pack can seem a soft touch when Sao and Satae go off so it might be just what we need

I suppose like all signings especially imports it's a risk. Could be brilliant, could be a liability. Probably not going to be boring, As you say he hopefully offers the aggression that Bowden and Matongo didn't.

The fans always love a rough Prop too, such as Greenhill and O'Meley in the MKM Stadium era and while on the field success is the main objective, improving the entertainment value and flogging some tickets is also important.

We wanted some pace out wide and we got it. Some pace from dummy half we got it. Some more size and aggression to the pack and now we've added that to. Good to see the club improving in the areas that so obviously needed it.
If Taylor can get back to fitness we now have 2 big units to come on when Sao and Satae go off. We will lose nowwhere near as much as having to bring Fash and Bowden on.

Re: Kane Evans signed : Wed Oct 27, 2021 5:37 pm  

Huge huge upgrade on Bowden.

So we now have quality depth at prop, strong bench option to spell Satae/Sao

Keep it up Hodgson let's get this squad transformed.

Would love another half back but I think a new half back pairing and another hooker will arrive next season.

Anyone think that's the end of the signings.........

I think it is probably the end, baring a junior signing. They'll want the players back in pre season soon and always takes time getting players across from down under, without the added Covid complications on top.

While I'd love new half backs there aren't many quality ones about, whoever replaces Sneyd will need to be a long term replacement too you need stability in that role.

Re: Kane Evans signed : Wed Oct 27, 2021 5:52 pm  

International, aggressive, 6ft 5, 17 1/2 stone and in his twenties. Could go well.

Re: Kane Evans signed : Wed Oct 27, 2021 6:05 pm  

We needed a prop, we've signed a prop. As to his ability I'll wait and see what he's like in a B&W shirt before I get excited.
