Quote: Saddened! "It doesn't matter. Is our fullback good enough? No. Are our outside backs any good? No. Are our forwards good enough? No.
We're a mid table side and it will take Brown 5 years to get the squad into the right shape to challenge for trophies again.'"
I said it at the start of the year and I'll say it again. Royce Simmons has set us back years with his crazy signings and shocking methods.
The signing of hohaia on a four year deal to play stand off shocking. Signing Laffranchi in a lightweight pack to play prop was also a massive mistake. He's doing ok but he's not the prop we need. We could get away with laffranchci propping with a james graham but he's our main starting prop and he's not good enough against good teams in the front row.
We are in urgent need of a good halfback and also desperate for a prop and pace in the backs.
Brown got tough job on his hands.
