Everytime he plays he doesn't let us down so why for several weeks have I watched our powder puff pack run it in like my gran?
Annakin not a world beater but gives 100% in that trin shirt must of had a falling out with Chester . Need to make it up and play him. Rather see him than Hirst and England every week.

Dewsbury play him at prop. He’s played there a few times for us but he’s mostly been used at 13, normally off the bench. Although when he first broke into the first team he did get the odd game in the second row, seem to remember him getting a try at a magic weekend game from that position. Mostly though he is a ‘middle’.

C'mon lads you do know that Homme Vaste has Chris Annakin's number don't you??

Don't start Dreadnought. You are derailing a perfectly good thread doing that.

If Anakin was mismanaged, it was probably as a junior - and that can sometimes be accidental; I expect with his frame, everyone expected him to be a unit, but he has never developed the size to be a modern prop.

He seems to be the perfect size and shape to be a modern 9 - and if he'd trained as one, you can imagine him being up there in the McIllorum mould - nugetty, tough and direct. He certainly has the ticker and bravery to be right in the thick of it - but lacks impact when he hits a line of modern forwards, who are all 6 footers with 18 stone of muscle to deploy.

Last year when woody played practically the whole year at hooker without relief due to Randall’s injury, chester in the main started Arona at lock and he and Annakin rotated as we played with only one hooker

It’s was actually a really good ploy I’m really surprised he’s not used it this season
