Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3250483, member: 9052"] Carrigan is a prop and forms a very solid rotation with Haas and Lodge. The only issue with him is being over played and shoe horned into the lock role when he should be in the prop role. The club hasn't really given an indication as to why Asiata isn't playing at the moment... might be the neck and they're just giving him time to get used to it. If he can resolve it then I think he's a good option for us at lock. I thought he looked good in the role in round 1 before the injury occurred. TPJ is also an option at lock, but I don't think he can handle 80mins. I think he also dropped some weight over the off season and doesn't seem to be dominating the middle in the same way he was last year... several times he's been buckled over and thrown a desperate offload whilst being driven backwards. Second row looks to be his spot moving forward. The other option for lock is Bullemor... he looks very mobile and 1910 has indicated his footy smarts when on the field. I'm not sure he can provide the ball playing that we'd want, but perhaps he becomes a bit like the Cam Murray type lock. I wouldn't say Cam is a ball player, but he works everything towards quick play the balls, supporting through the middle and offloading. Bull is always in supporting through the middle and may only be missing the offload game, but he may develop one moving forward. [/QUOTE]
