Agree, no side can carry a player to just do 15 minute bursts. Don't get me wrong, I can see the potential, but I don't see how he keeps King out (and King was fit to play this weekend wasn't he?)

I'm not sure how fit he is, that might be why he played academy, perhaps the coaching staff aren't either. Regardless, after a bruising encounter with Bradford I did say during the week that I would personally have preferred Moa not to play against Cas, even if that meant another backrower on the bench (Washbrook was definitely fit wasn't he?) and Radford's 2nd stint being at prop.

Be interesting to know what he's getting paid, and how much he costs per minute doing 15 minutes a game!

Can't really say I'd be bothered about that personally. He'd actually come out as better value than Tony, Raynor, Whiting, and Washbrook so far this season, would you say those are bad investments?
He's not fit and arguably shouldn't be in the team, that he is is down to the coaching staff and it's not fair to start suggesting he's being overpaid beacuse of it IMO.
