If one thing is apparent from that squad, and given we’re bound to suffer in season injuries, I think it is absolutely vital we recruit at the very least one metre eating prop forward with a decent offload.
The prop situation worries me.

Doesnt even need the offload just one that will put his head down and run through a wall

I thought wells plan would be to bring another top prop in to play with wattsy when he let Clark go ,Hepi not looked a great deal tho its early days
Imagine Griffin will do a good job but we do look light in forwards with doubts over junior moors and milo looking shot to bits at times last season

Agree, a Lee Jewitt type would be more than acceptable - theres surely some props knocking about who are granite that can be coached.

Maybe Hepi is the man but I genuinely believe we need a real handful of an extra prop.

Unless the backs strengthening has been chosen over an extra forward

I’d rather swap Matautia for a prop.

From the bits I've seen of Hepi, he is a prop with go forward and an offload on him.

I think he could be a decent little find for us!

One of the better Championship players in that division over the last few years. I also don't get where this, he couldn't get in the Toulouse team has come from, either from people on here that don't seem to rate him. He's played 108 games for them from 2016-2019 (70% of them playing at prop too!)

Another jewitt definitely wouldn't go a amiss right now

I’d love to see us bring in Matty English from Huddersfield. Looks like an excellent player every time I’ve seen him and he’s only just turned 22.

I think Hepi and Griffin would be wasted at prop. I agree with other posters another out & out starting prop would be great but feel we will use Jesse & Massey as make do's in that position when Watts,Smith or Millington are out.
