Always the Props who get the stick. Never the fairies who drop the ball and miss tackles and get suspended!

Take off your rose tinted specs and watch the games.

yes thought our props were decent in the second half of the season it was the lack of completing sets and the like that hindered us!

Touchy



Who's giving stick? My reference was in particularly at Mullally who I thought was brilliant for us but kept getting dropped.



We were average all year, team problem.

will need to ask the coaching staff why he keeps being dropped then, if his performances on the pitch were that good then surely he would keep his place

I'll give Baloo a bell

He kept getting dropped because PA wouldn't drop Koppy for more than one game for some reason. I assume it's because of the amount of money it has cost to get him here.



Hopefully with a full pre season Koppy will be the player he was in 2013.



Personally I would like to see Mullally play regular. Especially in front of a loanee.

I was impressed by Mullally last season. However Paul Anderson will have had his reasons for dropping him and he knows far more about playing prop forward than i do.

i like mullally but you would think paul anderson knows more about the prop forward role than we do!



kopczak is on 55k , hardly a big earner at the club, he didnt have a break pre season, captained the wales team in the world cup and struggled at the start of the season but who didnt? then he did get dropped but got back in the team and played quite well.



no loanee confirmed yet.



crabtree and kopczak are still our best two props. Huby probably 2nd to crabtree now but we shall see how he goes for the Giants!

I'd put Mullally on a par with Koppy going off form alone this year !

We certainly have depth here next year. Did we find out whether blagborough is still on the books?



Also Mason and Dickinson (?) In the background too

Blagborough was released and signed by Sheffield

Based on what I've seen this year and who I think need game time for the future of the Giants I'd like to see this starting 17 have a shot...



1. Connor

2. Jerry

3. Murphy

4. Wardle

5. Broughton

6. Brough

7. Wood

8. Huby

9. Lunt

10. Johnson

11. Ferres

12. Larne

13. Bailey



Subs. Crabtree, Koppy, Ta'ai, Ellis



I do hope Mullally gets plenty of time on the field this year and bad performances are punished. We have the squad to do it.



Won't in a million look like this though.. Too many big names missing in Cudjoe, Grix and Robbo.
