Quote: rubber duckie "Once again we look at least one if not two props short of a championship.
In all we have 3 areas that concern me.
1… The prop shortage yet again that I mentioned and the quality, looks like we’re going to rely on one man again, Vaughan.
2… Drinkwater. Initially I was thrilled with his signature, but he has been positively look warm drink water.
To put full game playing role into his hands is concerning.
3… Goal kicks. I’m a big Ratchford fan, but he’s not so evergreen, and if he is fitted in like a modern day Boitica, where is he going to play?
If he isn’t going to play, who’s going to kick?'"
Broad agreement. We're at least one, quality, prop short. Even if Burgess can get the best out of Dudson and Bullock, neither have been more than squad fillers throughout their careers.
Drinkwater has started well, then dissappeared, at every club that he has played for.
I don't want to see Ratchford 'fitted in' for his goal kicking. He's at the back end of his career and he'll add depth to the squad due to his versatility - but he shouldn't be starting this year.
