Pity we couldn't pair Laffranchi with Jammer. Great player.

To have had Laffranchi and Jammer in the team together would have been awesome. |

Does this mean speccies are accepting him as a prop and not just a second rower who is filling in? For me he is doing everything we could expect of any prop other than graham. Top pro and top signing. |

We've no option but to accept him as our prop but he's done well and has probably been one of our most consistsnt players this year. |

I would hope so. He certainly looks the part!

Totally agree. He's as near a replacement for Jammer as we could hope for. |

I think anyone will accept him as a prop if he can do the props job. Same as people don't go on about Jamie Peacock previously being a 2nd rower. Some players can make an effective change of places in a team others struggle in the new role they are asked to play.
We are coming close to half a season so if you measure up La Frankis stats with any other prop in the league lets say JP then he's doing pretty well.

More tries,
Similar meters in less carries
Similar tackles made
less offloads
slightly more tackle busts
a few more penalties but less missed tackles.
So when compared to the England Captain and one of our best props, he's doing ok. |

He is doing ok but it's a Shame we ain't got a big aggressive tough prop to partner him. I think we lack an aggressor in our pack. Our props a little to nice. |

Perry is that prop, or at least so his reputation would suggest. Having said that we haven't has a prop in that mould for many a year. Who was the last big aggressive prop we had? Fogerty? Davidson? Fozzard? |

Its also worth comparing him to Wigan superstar (sic) prop Lee Mossop
He stacks up very well there as well.
Franki may not be the best prop in the league but he is doing a top line job for us. We just need Perry to make that step up. So far he started off poor and then became a solid prop stopper, but he needs to start making the yards forward more effectively. |

Sonny Nickle propped for us so I'd say he was our last aggressive prop. Jammer was aggressive to a certain degree as well. |
