Not sure why we went with another small mid when young talls Frost and Downie were still available :-\.

Theres not alot to say really. Hopefully it comes off for the recruiting team but going with 2 smaller type players today is a massive risk IMHO.

i take it that means you are comfortable with the smaller type players we have?

My opinion is that what you bring in has to have the potential to be better than what you currently have. Im not happy with what weve got at the moment but I cant see Arnot or Ellis being any better than what we have at the moment. Its just my opinion thats all.

what are your knocks on them Ramps? Why are they not good enough?

theres nothing even on the RFC website about arnot, he must have taken even the IT crowd by surprise. Anything you could tell us about him?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

I just have a different view to the types of players we should be recruiting thats all. I wish all these boys well.

what type should they have got?

I see a couple of blokes who win the hard ball and make good decisions when they get it - two blokes who will strive to get the best out of themselves

what sort of players would you have got instead?
