Quote ="J7P1"With the arrival of Pene who is an excellent signing, there are greater priorities for recruitment than prop. We need two first rate centres, a loose forward and two quality second rows. I think Trout is going to develop into a top player and Norman is progressing well. I rate McNamara and it is unfortunate that he has been injured, otherwise the opportunity has been there for him to stake a claim on a regular place in the seventeen like Hanley, who has progressed into an outstanding player with further development to come.'"
We still need at least 1 more prop. Pene replaces Amone but still need to replace Nakubuwai(talking in terms of numbers not quality). Players like English don't come available very often, we'd be daft not to try and get him in to further beef the pack up as this season has shown you can't go through a season on only 4 quality props.
