Yes and before we start again it would be a yes for Tom Olbison as well.

Well, yet again we're on half the Sky money and, fair enough, we seem to be maximising other income streams but I'd be surprised if that were sufficient to cover the loss of competition money. Let's not forget, we weren't paying full cap when we [idid[/i have the full Sky money under the old regime. Much as I'd probably expect the club to name paying the full cap as an aspiration I doubt that will be matched by reality.

Most fans would like an Abramovich, so it wouldn't matter how much the net loss was each year. As we haven't got one, I'm happy with anything which doesn't lead to a six figure minus at the bottom of the spreadsheet at the year end. And while we are on half Sky money, that is almost impossible to achieve, I think.

What do we think we happen, to each of the other SL clubs, if suddenly THEY each had half THEIR distribution removed for 2 years? We would see a very different SL, and yet we are supposed to be (and are) competing with the rest. How we are doing it I don't know.

Donaldson, if he stays fit, is a keeper. Massively hard worker, great attitude and a machine in defence. On top of that, when he plays with some confidence, he's got a good step and decent pace for a backrower too.

If he can stay injury free for a while, his confidence will return, and he'll be hard to keep out of the side. Even with as many good backrowers as we already have.

Yes!

Yes. No brainer IMO.

I'm convinced he will come back to bite us if we don't keep him.
