The thought of moving Gaskell to loose strikes me as a similar argument as the ones that people put forward when they wanted Pryce moving to loose, which IMO was a bad idea then. Whilst he may end up at loose later in his career, I'm just not sure it's such a good idea now, especially when it's the physical aspect of the game he's been struggling with (understandably so) since getting into the first team.
The worry for me under your proposal is that there doesn't appear to be a plethora of big pack men available to bolster our pack. But I also think that the full back has more freedom to pick holes in defences than the loose forward has.
Of course as with all things, this is just us surmising and putting thoughts forward, we'll see what Brown does when he comes in.

I think Pryce playing as a proper LF would have perfect. I dont like this extra prop playing 13 tactic
