There's zero chance Robinson will play over Sio
but if Slipper or Sio go down, fatcat will get called up
Slipper's injury situation is definitely a concern. He's come off injured fairly early in a bunch of games this year and it has already been suggested he needs surgery at the end of the year.
That's a long road ahead to be playing injured. He'll need to be managed very carefully and hopefully he's up to it. It definitely seemed like the Reds scrum dominance dwindled after the first couple of scrums. It's an issue if he's only the best LHP for the first half an hour and then tails off a bit before needing to be replaced.

Even though I'm an old forward, this tight head v loose head argument confuses me, particularly as many seem to play one side for their super team and then the other side for their national team! Further, I've never met a prop that can't play both sides. And they all tell me that tight head is much easier to play than loose head..
So in general, LHP is more about technique and THP is more about being big? BTW, I wasn't doubting the validity of the argument, only that it confuses me.
Robinson's body is really a disgrace he is overweight even for a Fat Cat. If he fixed that up he would be a real contender however he just isn't fit enough.

THE one rule when you train with Mark Carroll is everyone has to fight the boss. Turn up for an hour of power at Spudd’s gym in Wooloomooloo and word is you’d better be ready for one-on-one time with the former Kangaroos enforcer................................................................................. It began when prop Benn Robinson sought out Carroll for extra sessions earlier this year and now a small group including regulars like Will Skelton and Tala Gray have a regular Wednesday “blow out”.http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sp...hs-title-defence/story-fnlhav6i-1227299103247
Great stats. Any way to compare effectiveness at scrum time?
