Just more wasted money. The hole we are plummeting down just gets deeper. I guess someone also thought the hooker was useful. He’s really got a vested interest in Trinity hasn’t he? Stood out well too didn’t he, Hewitt certainly did with three penalties against his name.

It's not that simple regarding Miller, there was more to it than that as I think you well know. However, moving on,I personally was not that bothered, we have had a good run from him and had is best years.
However !!!! not to replace him with someone as good or preferably better was rank incompetence in my opinion.

Completely agree. I expected a replacement and was looking forward to our options at half. That has not gone well.
Possibly, and it is only possibly, Smith will turn out to be that guy.

If he is given a chance when Gaskell is back.

Windrow picked up a ban in the reserves apparently

And this is the reason why our trajectory has not been upward for 5 years. And it's not all about money.

1. MC is an excellent CFO, but is not a CEO. Yes, I know it says "CEO" on his office door, but a CEO he is not. Richard Branson is a CEO. And think about it before you retort saying Branson was born a rich man.
2. Director of Rugby - Directors of Rugby, often possess a rich history of playing / coaching, spend many hours networking with agents and players alike, maintain good local scouting contacts, and benefit from a real eye for talent. They live and breathe RL. They have to.

This is not a dig by the way, far from it. MC has given blood, sweat and tears for Trin and we are all grateful.
