Lord Tony Smith:
Don't mind the TPJ signing. He's destructive with good hands and will give us some much needed size that we have been lacking. If we can keep hold of Vaughan I think 4 props of Vaughan, Harrison, Bryne and TPJ next year is pretty good.
This. He could be an excellent asset. Yes, he looks out of shape currently when you see how he used to be. Hopefully that can return. as LTS says, his hands are excellent for a forward. Just watch his passing from dummy in our last match against Cats. Despite him being unfit he still played the full 80 at second row against us. He made double the metres of Stone and also Fitz, with less errors and only a smidge less tackles.
Byrne looks like a defensive prop as I've seen him make good tackles but never really go on any rampaging runs.
Hopefully Sam gets TPJ back in shape and we have an excellent forward on our hands.
