He played against Saints with his elbow pretty heavily strapped IIRC

Well if this is true just one (hopefully two) more games and he can concentrate on getting 100% fit in the off season. Bollocks to him playing for England after what happened last time.

He picked it up just before HT in the Saints game, strapped it up and Madge left him out there.

Was it a gamble worth taking? Not sure saying we got a second bite but no one likes losing to the enemy.

Having a half fit STomkins on the field is better than having a fully fit first choice full back in most teams case.

I think he initially did it against Crusaders. I remember him shouting to the physio in that game and shortly after getting it strapped up.

Going back to the union talk, I believe Sam has it written into his contract that when he has won a Grand final and a Challenge cup (Which he has both) he is free to leave the club whenever he likes. Not sure is true but it was a good source and I have no reason not to believe it.

I hope he stays for the rest of his career but can't see it happening and the treatment he is getting from opposition players, coaches, fans and the media will only hasten his exit.

I also hope he gets the MOS as that will dispell the myth that he is hated by his peers and could be the confidence boost he needs as he doesn't look happy at the moment (admittedly this could be down to injury)

So basically the new long-term contract he signed at the start of the season said he can leave if he won a challenge cup. Hmmmmmmmm. eusa_think.gif

Yep, the kind of deal Lenegan would happily agree to.

Indeed you don't and you'll have no reason if they've delivered previously. Unfortunately given the info you supplied, and the fact I don't know them, I have every reason not to believe it.

That's the strangest clause in a player's contract I've ever heard of. If we are successful he can leave? Surely he'd put something in the other way round. Like footballers have clauses in their contract where they can leave if they dont qualify for the champions league.

Where I was coming from as well.

Basically win one CC during the 5 years and you can go. Not the best contract is it?
