Walmsley an impact prop ! Only making 140m a week

That's why I have him starting in my first 17 at saints. Didnt know impact props started?

I can't be bothered trying to explain what I mean to the fountain of rugby league knowledge that you are.

I agree with SLS on this one. Walmsley's fitness has improved and he's become a starting prop now that can make big yards, play longer minutes and make big tackles. When you add in Richards, Thompson and LMS I think we're fine for those type of prop forwards.

What we would lack if Mose went is a big impact prop. Savelio could potentially play that role but is still raw.

Re: Mike Rush Down Under : Thu Mar 12, 2015 3:35 pm  

Our conditioning has improved this year and it seems Walmsley has benefited the most, he is a lot more versitile now and KC has the advantage of using him as a starting prop or an impact prop. It seems as though we are getting an extra 10 -15 mins out of him per game and this appears to be giving him the improved stats.
The hard yards are going to be from Amor, Richards, Thompson and Vea with Walmsley, LMS and Greenwood the break out runners, Don,t think we have seen enough of Sav to evaluate where his position will be.
We have a very good pack and will probably be put to the test next week...........I hope the lads in the pack will be up for it.

I like Walamsley second spell after his rest, it's like having a impact prop coming on. It's a shame Mose couldn't do the damage big Alex does while he's on. How good would that be rotating to players that causes devastation!

That's the point i making before gob sh*te Wayne Bennett wanna be who knows all things rugby league and the ultimate fountain of knowledge in all things rugby that SLS is.

Salford was in crisis and brought in Tim Sheens and I hear crisis club Wigan bringing in SLS as advisor to wane and Wigan.

Re: Mike Rush Down Under : Fri Mar 13, 2015 6:34 pm  

I think it's worth noting that Walmsley takes the first carry from kick off's when he is on. That has to be worth an extra 8 to 10 meters every time. 4 of those in a game can make anyone's stats look better.

I dont think the idiot got my point. Big Alex isn't what you'd call a long min prop like Amor. He's used in short bursts of say 15/20 mins in which he usually makes a big impact on the game when he skittles defenders putting is on front foot. He can do longer mins but I think you lose his "impact" as it's pretty clear he does get tired.

It would be ideal if Mose could come on and carry on what big Alex starts but half the time he has no impact on the game. Then Alex returns for his 2nd spell and makes "impact" again.

I'll await rugby league guru SLS to tell me I'm wrong.
