Don't know , all I know he is being used wrong ....... The guy is big and can ball play but we don't see much of it ...... Why not 30 m out scrum throw him in at 5/8 and give him options ....... He can be dangerous that close with room to move .......
i swear he should play 6 and LKT 7
at least takes the line on and can kick better then our current 7.

A move to prop been mooted by many of us before throughout the season. Luch is skilful but his bulk limits his edge forward speed and work rate. Very few if any of the top edge forwards these days (Nikora, Kikau, Manly unpronounceable,) look anything like Luch- who could be more aptly nicknamed- lunch. He's the Artie Beetson of the 2020s. Off the bench, limited minutes, prop rotation for mine.

We have been missing a big prop who can break the defensive line, off-load the ball, and defense with a great deal of force all season. We have had plenty of opportunity to move Leilua to the middle and test this theory.

We are now very short on props, so I suggest we move Leilua to te prop rotation right away.
