Yes just seen it, not one of my favourite players but has got some good qualities and I like his confidence to direct the pack but has some seriously large blinkers on, there are better English scrum halves playing in the National Leagues IMO!
Agreed, simply beggars belief :smt010

How does everyone feel about this? Great player but I really thought he was going to be better, looked like Kieran Read playing for the Blues but has never looked like that for us as yet

Hopefully he can really push on under Mauger :smt023

I'm hoping that with Evans and BOC committing to the Club, they can push each other on to greater heights.

Good news going forward, I wonder what they know about our DOR going forward? Kind of tricky signing a new contract without knowing what the future holds.

They are professional rugby players. Surely, the contract is to play for the club not any particular DOR. Imagine signing for a struggling football club, there would be a high probability of the manager who made the signing being gone before the contract expired (often before the ink had dried).

He only signed a fresh contract at the end of last season... highly doubt that was a one year deal, especially as a prop.
