Every week over the 4-5 weeks, our props have both made over 100 metres and regularly pushed close to or above 30 tackles each. No other forwards have come close to that, despite some of them playing 20-30 mins more per game.
Our props are playing great and are busting their arses, but they are getting no support from the back row (except Fulton).
Sheens has been playing our props for longer and longer, meaning our benchies are sitting on the pine fresh as daises, and still have fuel in the tank when the game is over.
Sheens pathetic use of the bench is burning out our props. God help us if Galloway and Woods are out at the same time, because at this rate, its a very high possibility of happening.
Ellis had always helped out the props in attack and Fulton helped them out in defence. The workload was well shared.
Now we have Blair doing nothing in attack or defence, Hino who tries, but seriously isn't very effective (he makes big metres through running the ball up a lot, which is commendable, but he's not bending the line, or making defences work hard. Also, he rarely dominates in a tackle) and Fulton, who lets face it, has been playing out of his skin this year and would be up there with Ryan for our best player this season.
