Whatever it means, props with real size are a rare commodity, and any successful side needs at least one big prop, whether they play a forward oriented game or not. Add to that the fact that our scouting system has recently brought in two young athletic outside backs who are currently ripping it up at U19 level.

This news shows that we are competing nationwide and beyond for young talent, and thinking outside the box too. To put a negative spin on it is just perverse.

Shame the scouting system hasn't picked up some great young talent locally thats opted for other clubs.

Like who? We can then keep an eye on how they go compared to the lads we did sign.

I'd they aren't saints fans, then we also have to acknowledge that there is more than one good club for a young bloke to sign for and we can't sign them all.

One that I know of plays for Clock Face and is a Saints fan. He is a very very good player and Saints didn't put any effort into signing him up. I'm pretty sure he is now at Wigan scholarship.
