I think Hurd has potential to be that good. But for me TH is like the cornerstone for us.Leicestertinytiger wrote: ↑Sun Mar 17, 2024 12:52 pm Actually disagree about TH and our locks, mainly down to two Scots.
Hurd I think is massively underrated and for me is better in the scrum that Heyes. Also think he’s got the potential to be our first choice TH in the future and needs minutes on the pitch.
Agree with comments about Wells. But Henderson will be back next season and has shown he more than good enough to be starting for us.
Lewis Chessum is also a massive prospect and will want minutes too next season. He was alongside CCS with the U20s as two players who looked physically ready for the next level. So we have four locks not including Wells who are good enough for the premiership.
Henderson is class don't disagree but it's an rough position lock, Martin and Chessum both with England, Henderson prob with Scotland when fit. I just feel we need one more option at lock with that dog in him, like I have said it multiple time but Sale lock signings
JL du Preez
Cobus Wiese
Ernst van Rhyn
That frame of player I just feel would really be handy to have.
Like Lewis Chessum is a great prospect but I feel more confident having some like Martin in terms of power option next to him for a season or two.
