Im saying that I think his performance over the past 4-5 years hasn't changed dramatically. But now he is competing against the likes of Vaughan, Harrison, Nicholson and Fitzgibbon for a place in the 17 and hence doesn't compare well. I don't think we will get much more out of him either. He is relatively small so needs to put in 120% effort when he comes on, so using him for shortish spells from the bench seems to be the best bet.

Not the first one to make that comment, after my injury.. be back on the pitch before I know it..

He might well know what he wants from a prop, but things have gone west with Bullock more times than I can count on one hand.
I question why we gave him a new contract.
He was on a heft contract to pluck him from Wigan, not sure he’s repaid a threepence of it yet.

and yet, you've never been as harsh with him as you have with vaughan

I’m not harsh on Vaughan, I’m disappointed with Vaughan.

Unquestionably talented. Solid performer…

But I sigh at his ability to always find the softest of penalties to find himself enjoying the holidays out of term time.

I’ve never understood the phrase “doubling down”. Can someone give me an example?
