Short of Props.

Wow that would be a bit of a coup. Has had bid wraps for a while but generally been stuck behind some pretty good prop rotations (warriors in 2010/11, dogs 12). I haven't seen much of him the last few years but he is a beast and does have some skill. I can't imagine him costing a lot and is defineitaly worth a shit. Depth prop at worst
 
Ironically played most of this year in the second row but probably most effective at prop. Not a big prop by comparison to others but can really hit the line and has uncanny offloading abilities - kind of like a bigger version of Warriors Sam Rapira but with better footwork and ball skills.

Potential galore but needs to get his mental game right!

Oh well, if he's on board for 2013 then it only adds to the Tigers depth, and if he shows the kind of talent people say he has then he may push for a bench spot at some stage. Good luck to him and hopefully the change of club does him good.

jesus there are two props at penrith who do not seem very happy grab one or both of them ,mackendry or grant.

I believe that Penrith have signed Mase Masoa from Roosters so McKendry and Grant may be ready to go at bargan prices.
 
I don't think we are as short as appears tbh. Blair should make a permanent move to prop imo. Get him hitting the weights and eating like a pig all off season. We have a more than adequate crew of backrowers to cover for him, especially now that Anasta has been confirmed as a backrower. Throw in Fotuiaka, Seumanufagai and from what the word is, James Gavet and our prop depth ain't bad at all.

Backrowers:
Anasta
Fulton
BMM
Bell
Thompson
Pettybourne
Naiyaravaro
Santi
Vela
Lovett
Spence
Sironen

Props:
Woods
Galloway
Blair
Fotuiaka
Seumanufagai
Groat
Buchanan
Gavet
Sue

Sue was devastating towards the end of the season for the NYC side and he is a very big dude. Haven't heard many wraps on him but he is in the top squad for 2013 so he is definitely in calculations and with good reason.

8\. Woods
10\. Galloway
11\. Anasta
12\. Pettybourne
13\. Fulton

14\. BMM
15\. Blair
16\. Bell
17\. Fotuiaka

Not a bad rotation at all tbh. All four bench forwards can play backrow or prop more than effectively. Then we have a hell of a lot of depth too.
