I agree, but even with Ross fit, we were already short one prop at least for this year mate.
Ross and Hutch were picked as our starters when all players were fit.
Leaving Douglas and stosic as the back ups.....very light on.
we bought Villa to replace the depth gap that ross's injury created.
Selmes and manua were our reserve grade options with the chance to step up.
My point is that had Nuts been retained, we'd have two NRL starting props in Ross and Nuts, with the rookie dougie, and the benchman hutch to come from the bench.
Hey, its workikng now and I hope the depth is never further tested
