Unless Charlie or Umaga is leaving, I hate this signing..what's the need it's filling.
It's not a balance signing, it won't impart knowledge or experience to our existing 10's, it serves no purpose. Every side has a settled 10, seems we aren;t going down that route with Charlie or Umaga then.
On the kid himself, he's ok, he's good enough but nothing special and no one called him out having played us as a wow, what a player. In fact Conor is the first pick but has been injured.
We don't need a 10, we have Umaga, Atkinson, Miller, Mills and Crossdale has played there.
We need to invest in what we have instead on bringing in the same. Are we now saying Atkinson, who is better from what I have seen, isn't investible? He's having a so so season but wont be worse for getting it on the books.
I don't see this as an area that needs strengthening, def isn't a priority and def not by this type of signing. We have other area's to solve like 12, where we have signed a bang average Saffa and have a semi retired player in Mills. How about a quality 15? Crossdale has been ok when he's played, which is hardly at all, but he's error prone...there are so many other priorities, i just don't get it, although I'm not surprised by this given the clowns that are running the show at the moment.
