I remember last year he was kept out for ages with a groin injury then he got this hip one which he needed to see a specialist for.

thanks, I guess in 18 months we can make a judgement.

Berrigans Bitch with some very dubious posts in this thread as usual. Not the only one though.

Really good signing, to those who question the length of the deal, if we didn't snap him up on that length of contract its almost certain somebody else would have. Welcome aboard Eamon.

Did I say that, not disputing it but i don't book mark my posts, you clearly do with mine??

Like I said it depends, lose Moa and replace him with O'Carroll then yes shocking. Signed as 5th choice prop, good signing.

Depends on the context.

Yes you did.....along with 'we might as well not bother with a reserve side' suggesting you think his signing would be keeping our young lads out.

Anyway....only jesting with ya fella, just picked up on it this morning when I was looking to see who started the original O'Carroll rumour

How dare that berrigans bitch have a different opinion...tut, tut

really good signing not only for now but for the future i still feel we need a young english backrower along with lynch and the pack is sorted

So was O'carroll Mcrae's signing ?

Just keep it quiet and then everyone can just blame Rich in a couple of years if he doesn't work out.

no mention of Agar in the press release

same with Gentle already (and he hasn't been officially announced)

I don't see the point of getting rid of Luaki for someone who has had a very serious injury in such a short career to be an interchange forward. At least Luaki has been available all season when required even if he always hasn't performed to his best.

for me we still need a backrower and we have a non fed or whatever left so keeping lauaki for a year on a reduced deal would be a good option for me unless we can get better for next year
