Smaller, more reasoned readership here, so posted rather than on DW’s.

Overheard Simmo chatting to a fan outside the stadium yesterday as we were leaving.  The fan said that they hoped he stayed and didn’t want him to leave. He said he was grateful, but that unfortunately the Club don’t feel the same way...

Not overheard, but apparently said elsewhere is that he’s not injured. He’s just being selected.

Rossm:
One of the commentators in yesterday's game said that Simmo was recovering from a broken leg!

That is tosh. Not unless he tripped over a cat or dog. Certainly not when he went off in his last game.

BG:
I think Bayfield at pitchside referred to it as that.. but "broken" leg is a very broad term.. it might just be a chipped bone, stress fracture as opposed to a compound fracture of the femur.

It transpires that Itoje has been playing with a chipped patella all through the Autumn and Hask has been playing with a chipped bone for the last 12 months in his ankle

As to Simmo's comment of not being wanted, that could simply translate to each side not agreeing the player's worth in terms of contract value. His last contract was probably signed when he was on the top of his game.

I hope Dai and the board have learned their lesson from signing big name stars on 2 yr deals. Its beginning to look like 3yrs should be the standard term to get the best out of a player

Vespula Vulgaris:
I'll be very disappointed if Simmo is fit and we aren't playing him.Off or not he is way better than Hampson or Porter.
