A thousand unprintable oaths! The wife's sisters are coming round. Anyone know a link to the game? Or am I stuck with blithering Bleddyn whilst the opening scene from Macbeth unravels in the dining room?

We've paid someone for almost two years for nothing then?

It's 2.5 seasons. He signed in 2013.

GK I fear we have, made mistake in signing him and doing the honorable thing. 2 mins in Munster too long, he was anonymous in the A team on Monday, just not good enough. If we were to pick him ahead of those, you would soon be agreeing with me. :smt012

Maybe his injuries mean that he is no longer the international class player that he was or maybe he is just rusty. Only time will tell.

CT, why did his previous club let him go (forgotten, was it Exeter?) he was obviously not good enough for them, or Argentina, we all have better players than him, maybe his injuries have effected him but I wish people would stop asking why he s not picked, at the moment he is not good enough.

Was he the only one that played poorly in that 'A' team match? We just don't know what is going on behind closed doors, well, I don't.

"When you come back from a long injury, the body has to go back and adapt to the circumstances," he said. "I was rushing too hard I think and some parts of my body were not ready to go from zero to 100."

"I don't train half way at 50 per cent, I am always at 100 per cent. Finally we are here and I don't want to talk about injuries any more. I am just focusing on getting stronger and better."
Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens.

I wish him well and trust that getting fully fit will help me change my mind.

+1 I paid a £5 deposit and watched the Worcester game. Ok,it's in a smallish window but it was fine.
Having said that, Big Dai, there's a compelling argument to leave Marge, Selma & Patti at home, and to get down to WR.

Its a testament to how much Argentina rate him that he was being picked by them whilst he was unattached in the summer/autumn he joined us, and that his first game in 2 years would be for the national side in the RC against Australia.

...furthermore, why does any team 'let players go'?...
Moving from a smaller club to a bigger, more successful club would suggest that he probably didn't leave Exeter because he wasn't good enough. Imho, of course :smt001
