Forwards in Premier League

I haven't been able to see the Premier League in recent weeks and all the reports that come back seem to relate to backs. Can someone tell me who the form forwards in Prems have been and who would be the closest to promotion?

Alex most people seem to talk about Josh Cordoba in here but
(i think) Fui Fui got Man of the Match yesterday

It wouldn't surprise me to see Cordoba get a call up with Muckert, Tsoulos and Stapleton all gone.

However, I'm not sure if Smith will want to blood a rookie prop against the Broncos.

I think Kaufusi, Moi Moi and Cordoba will get the call up. I seriously believe that it's time to see Jeremiah Pai in first grade, This man is a machine and deserves a run. He didn't come from NZ for nothing, He came to play first grade and in my opinion he is capable of doing so with wagon back at five-eighth this week, Throw Pai to Lock and Widders and Mateo on the bench.

Ive seen that Jim Curits play, a bit like Martin Lang when he runs, full speed dynamite. Except doesnt get smashed.

Yeh Curtis is ok. But I don't think he is up for First Grade. I really do like him though, Give him a bit longer to mature in Reggies.

Jim Curtis actually hits the ball up with pace. Right at the advantage line and doesn't run back at the markers like a few first grade guys. He and Cordoba were really impressive on Sunday. Mal Kaufusi could be in line for a bench spot soon, he played longer stints than Fui and really showed he is a lot fitter and able to last a bit longer.

Mal would be the logical choice for a first grade call up seeing as he has played first grade before. Blooding the likes of Cordoba and Curtis could be a good thing especially against the likes of Webcke and Petero but we can only wait and see.

I think we need to see more of Moi Moi, more game time that is. He reminds me of Tookey, the fans would cheer everytime he takes up the ball. "Here comes FUI FUI" :D Good for the game.

But i agree with Dvdhntr, Curtis, Cordoba and Kaufusi are all good props and good options to replace Stapleton. Or perhaps we give Pearson a go in the starting line up. But both Curtis and Cordoba were impressive on Sunday.

I saw the 2nd half of Premier League and Mal Kaufusi was hitting the ball up pretty strongly
Also whoever was playing in #13 looked pretty good running the ball on the fringes - but looked to do a bit too much at times and made a few mistakes
