James Evans is not classed as an overseas player due to playing in this country before the quota rules came into place.

As a community based club, he lost my respect when he dis-respected our community by drink driving on the same streets that we, and our children walk.

As a player, he has lost his impact, his energy and effort has diminished, so it is rightly the time for him to move on.

Is it with immediate effect? or at the end of the season?

End of the season

Having spoken to Sarge recently when asked why he wasn't getting the game time he replied that he was playing with a dodgy calf, and had no energy due to a virus, could have been a fob off but he seemed genuine. Have to say the the guy seemed pretty fed up about it all! I for one am going to miss him on the field.

Absolutely agree with all of that. Well said.

Hopefully the club see all of these departures as an opportunity to take the team to another level in terms of player recruitment and are not just looking at the cheap option. How great would it be to see one or two really good signings along the lines of a Fitzgibbon or a peacock type forward and a Danny brough type scrum half? Although obviously we need more than one or two!
It’s been too long since we made a really exiting signing so let’s hope that our newest board member can help give us what we need.
Good luck to sarge anyway.
