as an Irish fan felt he was an average player to watch, probably shows up well in the stats. Tough character, probs why Cockerill likes him

watch as he gets into the saxons set up...

hopefully Irish will make a decent signing to cover his loss because he started at 8 most of last season, what with Halau'fia trying to single handedly decapitate the majority of the AP

A lot of injuries at tigers and there's always the problem of losing players during international breaks

The salary cap must surely limit the number of show piece signings when the squad is already full of quality. Every side needs the journey men

I'm not sure myself to be honest. Currently we've got Croft and Newby at blindside, with Mafi able to play there too, Salvi, Woods and Armes at openside (Pienaar has been released) and Waldrom, Crane and de Carpentier at 8.We've also signed Brett Deacon as injury dispensation for Croft and Newby...I'm guessing this chap is also injury cover?

I dont get it is he a really good player? I understand Leicester signing Miles Benjamin because that lad is class. I dont understand Leicester should go for players like Jonathan Joseph or Henry Trinder. Players that are on the brink of the EPS. I understand Joseph is up there, I mean players like that.

You look at who they've signed Brett Deacon? sorry he's not good enough. They need to start reinvesting in quality. London Irish seem to be creating an exciting team from their academy why not Leics
