He's far more effective when he starts and plays long minutes but we have so many good back row options we're not using him that way plus he's been picking up injuries so hasn't had a decent run in the side

Very strange comments, particularly about Frank, when he has played he has done well and has been pretty consistent without being outstanding.
Turgut has lots of potential, but Tomo and Hadley offer a lot more to the first team currently.

Possibly,but from what I have seen at the games I attended earlier in the season and matches on TV,I haven't been bowled over...Reminds me of Fitzgibbon when he was here,big reputation but didn't live upto it.

Why strange?....he hasn't impressed me at all,Hadley is a plodder and Thompson hit and miss.Turgut offers a lot more imo.

Another strange comment, Fitz was a great player for us, he did exactly what was expected of him, I don't think Frank has been brilliant, but has been good, just because he isn't scoring or setting up try's for fun, doesn't mean he hasn't been good.
I do think there is more to come from Frank though.

Not offence, but you can tell you haven't watched many games, Hadley is a good solid player, agree in some respect about Tomo, but they are both ahead of Turgut and rightly so.
How many times have you seen Turgut this season, I don't think he quite ready yet.

He wasn't great at all,he was slow,slowed the attack down and not in my top 13 overseas players.It was a pleasure to see a modern day legend play for us but he was arguably past it when he joined us.....just how I saw him and we all have opinions

Guess we will have to agree to disagree about this one.

Like I said,from the games I saw and since on telly,he hasn't impressed me,just my opinion.i prefer more to solid but a hu4 postcode goes a long way
