Thought I recognised the name, just googled him and he played 2 matches for us back in 2015.
Worryingly I can’t see the likes of jouffret n Keyes sticking round if we don’t pull our finger out , with lots of contracts ending this season might just end up with Brandon Douglas’ thumb .

I'm pretty certain Wiki has this wrong, he played more than 2 games for us the season that he were with us. I remember him as a regular in the line up and probably around the time we last had a pack that was really feared with Tangata, Cahalane, Richard Moore, and Dane Manning.
Edit: Decided to have a look on google and first 2 games I picked out he played in........then can't find him in others Old age memory playing tricks and maybe he did but ive checked games a couple either side and hes not in the line up.

At least the BoD / club are trying to respond to our current League position but when finances are already tight if your having to spend more can only be adding extra pressure.
Be interesting to know how the books are balancing playing personnel wise when you weigh up the difference from between all the outgoing / incomings from this years original starting squad.
We started on a bigger budget even with a smaller squad and if they are having to spend more to fend off the threat of relegation it would be more like a avoiding doom and bust instead of the usual boom and bust scenario.

If that's true would be really disappointed- think he's got better and better since he joined us and has probably been our most consistent player over last couple of seasons, one of the few who has the ability and pace to change a game.

May be that’s why we are getting so many French players signing up to make LJ feel at home. He has been playing in Britain for about 8 years now I think.
