Props...Its Official

This place has gone insane.

Vasco's comparing Koups to Fletcher and Cogburn is wrapping FPN.

Speak easy mun.

I bagged FPN relentlesly last year mainly because he kept spilling the ball. This season he is much improved as his error rate is minimal. He is not a line breaker but he does produce a good offload. If he can continue the way he's going then I'd be happy to keep him.

Cogburn,

I'm not sure how you did this as for the first 16 rounds last year FPN was the only player in the NRL to have not recorded an error????? and this is from the official stats

Both Frank and Lopini turned in improved performances against the broncos and are coming along quite nicely

Their fitness is a worry.

They seem to have their hands on their hips more than on the ball.

I noticed that and to be honest the current game plan doesn't help them get more fitness. Lopini is a 40 minute prop at best and has been used for his defense in the middle more than his running game.

So on Friday when he was called on to play more minutes he struggled....but his defense was still very good.

Thats more to do with their training rather than their fitness. Smith has had them working over time on their 'I'm a little teapot' routine for when they have their next visit to RPA Childrens Ward

I think that hot sunday where they all lost 3 and 4 kilos took a lot out of them. They both improved on Friday, and I reckon they'll continue to

A lot of the bigger guys don't come into their own until June/July where the weather has cooled down and they're match hardened.

That platitude doesn't appear to apply to the likes of Civoneceva or Tolman.
Come on FPN and P2, prove the doubters (including me) wrong.

I did say 'a lot' and not 'all big guys'

I didn't say you did and thus your retort is moot.
