    I said in the post Robes is outstanding, but he does not frighten opponents like KC did.
    Scully quoted that when he played for Warrington that the coach then (think it was Raper) asked them at half time was KC wearing his underpants outside and said that he is not Superman and get him nailed, Scully mentioned that was the regard he was held in the oppositions dressing room.
    A tough uncomprimising player is what I think our pack needs, I know a Fogarty putting a Judas on the likes of Cowie would get you 10 matches now, but someone like JP who could do it without getting caught or when an opponent has done it to one of ours a la Mason,someone who takes the referees decision out of their hands once in a while.

    Can’t think of any player to fit the description, it’s all about discipline and defence these days. Benny Westwood perhaps the nearest but even he turned chicken when Big Mose went for him.

    One of the funniest moments in RL on tv: Westwood to Thaler - 'Have you seen the size of him?!" Thaler to Westwood: "Yes, but I can't do anything about that"

    Brilliant news with regards to Walmsley, his absence really told at the end of the year. Having an international class prop forward coming back into the team can’t be underestimated.

    For me Peacock and Graham, the best two British props of their generation. And, two that can hold their own over their predecessors.
