If this is correct he would have to be the shortest term recruit that we have ever had

It's no different a player being here for a few months or a few years and going to another team they're still going to find out our secrets, it's just how it works. Besides, if he can come here and help us win the competition this year then i don't care where he ends up next year. Of course if he goes real well for us i'd like him to stay but if that's not possible then si be it.

he may just love it here a la finchy and stay, so don't give him up yet...

thought of another short term recruit too, arana taumata was only here about 2 months before he got the sack wasn't he?

I was at training today and Fa'aoso was there. He did not look and big as I thought he was, but he did look a lot faster than I thought he was.

He had to stay around for about 10 minutes after the session with some trainers and work on trackling on the ground.

Afamasaga was another who only lasted about 5 minutes.

Were they teaching him those dastardly illegal wrestling techniques we invented?
