Can anyone explain to me what "the good standards within our club" are

Thats the cheap standard ...........................


Like normal standards, but cheaper














Unless your the third highest paid import from down under

i personaly think cussack is a good signing has been our most consistant prop this year . also would not agree our pack has been outplayed against all teams . its what happens outside the pack thats been poor

I like him as a player but his age does concern me especially with the injury he has at present. It also leaves us with only one quota spot left, I was hoping with two spots we would sign a prop and a back, now we can only sign an overseas player for one position.

That said he is certainly one of our better props and if it mean we are losing Thacks, Radford etc then I would be happy with it.

We pretty much held our own against the celts

It's unlikely to be a prop. We have dowes, cusack, luaiki, radford and king signed up for next year. I also doubt we'll release all 3 of moa, thackray, maloney

I'd like to see Dowes, Cusack, Luauki and Kite, with Maloney as backup. Let King, Moa and Thacks go. Play Tansey at fullback and sign Atkins or another British centre.

Do we have one or two spots left? Some people int his thread have said we'll have 2 due to Lauaki being on a Tongan passport..

Luauki is a quota player.

If we've done the paperwork correctly then that should be the case. I'm not optimistic that we're clever enough to have done this.

Thought he was non fed as he'd applied for a visa as a samoan which is why there has been a delay due to his English test

I ain`t so sure as to how many quota spots we have left Paul, originally Lauaki was coming over as a quota player, however he applied for his visa using his Tongan passport so i assume that would make him a Kolplak signing, if that is the case we would still have 2 spots available
