I was comforted by Blackett’s clarification that first and foremost he wants his props to scrummage well. I may be old fashioned but that’s pretty much all I see as an essential. Anything else is a bonus. I do worry when I see props described as dynamic. Offloads, line breaks and slick handling are great. But get the pushing right and tackling people is the main thing.

If a prop cannot to the basics then sorry, he should be be recruited. End of.

As an ex front row, I absolutely agree. This is the main reason that I am no great fan of Will Stuart😀
