@chris Best of luck to him then. Does he cover tighthead particularly well or something? Hodgman was good tonight.
Better TH than LH I think.
Bower and Williams will have to cover TH for the Crusaders to back up Jager and Newell if needed next season,if the rumours are true about not picking a 7th prop to replace Michael A as they had this season. -

Thanks, Chris. The Ofa T out, there is certainly a gap there to be filled.
That helps Bower and Lonax

@crucial been a few games he has looked gassed in the latter part of games, he is quite physical and gets involved in alot of breakdowns so is doing a good amount of work.
Think there was an article stating he had bulked up a few kegs too, but he has played 80 mins each week since that game v the saders I think?
Possible he needs a break, which he will between now and NPC.

Agree and that's why I'm not judging him too much on that. First full season at this level with big minutes. Has certainly put on some bulk which he needs to adjust to as well.
I was impressed with his defence and positioning intent though and think he looked very good until the tank started to get low. -

This would have been the biggest/hardest season for a few of them like Gregory, think he’s started the last 7 games
