Isn't that a rather damning assessment of the calibre of #10's in the NH?
Do you reckon he would get a gig with the Wobs on current form?

Excellent point HJ. We've seen him play 10 many times in Australia. Other than 2008, he has never been a real solution. Lacks the vision and willingness to attack the line. Would surely be behind Cooper, Foley and To'omua as a 10 (Perhaps a better player than any of them though) here right now. Outside the Top 14 he wouldn't have the benefit of an international quality pack to play behind against club teams.
If he threatens to join league then he just might...
If he threatens that, the ARU might just buy him a farewell tattoo.

I could look like Dan bloody Carter playing with Toulons Forwards and Outside Backs.
Now, it's not a slight on any of those players. But it's ridiculous how strong the team is.

The dudes a douchebag but if he's up front about all of this then I think if prefer that to a guy who says all the right things to score a contract and then fucks off 2 years later.
But really until I see him run out in a Reds jersey etc I'm not going to get too excited either way.

So the two year deal will be for all the Reds games for the rest of Calendar year 2014 and all of 2015 until RWC 2015 is over. That is a deal that spans two years.
Then after Link parachutes him into Wobs for RWC 15, and we bring Bill back here, he will be off to Toulon for 3 NH seasons.
So he's sort of baaaaaaack, then gooooooooone again. If he is cynically here to use ARU to increase his brand for life post RWC then FFS, I'd rather let The Darkness retain Bill than cheapen our Brand to help BrandO'Connor.
Forget the Brand O'Bieber. Unleash the KHunt.

I don't reckon he's good enough anyway.

Yep. The ABE in me is strong.

While your technically correct, I can't help but think he would have better off keeping it quiet.

But that's not really what you said is it. I just find it amazing that because a guy is trying to maximise his income and being a dickhead about it you call him out for being cynical and not really giving Australian rugby the respect it deserves and then in the same sentence you forget your loyalty to your national team and hope the kiwis win it. Just seems a bit hypocritical.
