Quote: Erogenous Jones "Tony came over to play & train with Quins last year, not 2 years ago. He qualifies for under 18 but club plan to use him at Reserve grade (played for U18s 2 weeks ago). He does speak English, this is one of the requirements of the club for any player (his colleague who also came over last season was found to have insufficient English to understand training sessions and this was one of the reasons he did not come back this year).
Tony was in the initial squad for the France/England test in Paris and has had another SL club interested in him but preferred Quins after his experience here last year.
He plays for SOA (Sporting Olympique Avignon) in the French LER competition & both clubs hope for more player exchanges in the future. (One 14 year old is already being monitored in the SOA juniors & may be the next player to come & try Quins & Quins U18s may play in France later this year.)
So are you saying we are helping the French club out by schooling their player, or is he a player we are considering signing who we are trialing?
Doubtful he'll be here 6 months but can't say why at present.'"
