I’m delighted not just because Eddie is a first class player but because of the effect I believe he will have on another first class player.

Despite only playing for us for half a season Battye quickly became a fan’s favourite. Dave won’t like that’s after years as the top of the props.

I think this is a good thing, players like Dave love the limelight but they also need to be pushed. Dave will not want to be compared badly with Battye.

Job done, two for the price of one.

I tend to worry (in my own head) that Dave's attitude might be the opposite to the reaction you mention above, but I hope that you are right on this one.

Good signing for me by the club, a good solid forward that we know exactly what we are getting from which is a big advantage over bringing someone else in.

Quote: TrinTrin "Yeah Cheshire cat, this coming season may be a repeat of last season when losing players with covid, now Leeds & giants
Have a close down to grounds/stadiums etc + players isolating !
A team this year could could be in relegation due to too many lost games with players isolated again & then again.
Vaccinations of people will not stop transmission, it only protects the herd, it will be a long time before 20 to 30 yrs
Get a vaccine !
One has to remember other older people run & operate clubs, day to day !'"

Sorry mate but i dont know where your coming from with this post!
With this covid pandemic every club is in the same boat it will be how we manage it will be the key.

Maybe some clubs will be greater effected than others? Track and trace is all down luck really, I think we saw last season that some clubs were a lot more effected in terms of losing players than others.

Correct! but who manages it the best should be less disrupted surely.

Nah he showed signs of reacting to Battye last year. Daves pretty unpredictable in many way but being a twin he gets sibling rivalry. After years under Andrew’s shadow he won’t want to play second fiddle to some sheep farmer.

He may want to leave us I don’t know but if so he’ll want to be too dog when he goes.

For me this is a great signing for everyone and well done to the club for making this happen.
The plus side I would think is that if we do sign another player now this season it would have to be quality as we now for me have the full squad and with the back room changes which most have been asking for, for a couple of years now then the club looks brighter again than it has for a few seasons.

Great signing. Even more optimistic for a decent season for us now.
