that so far he has been deemed 'not fit for purpose' yet, otherwise yesterdays' shambles at Twickers would have been all his fault :exc:

he could have been MOM even without playin

think if i was him i would get out now

would be happy if he came back is gene miles still playin

sad thing is faz has had more things said about his lack of a rah rah career this last year than he did in all his great RUGBY L years

Was there a game at Twickers? Who played?

mr farrell did ok on his debut at inside center for saracens it would seem. still cant see him playing for england though. i dont blame him for topping up his pension though before retirement.

England's RU plight could be bad for us IMO. They could now target even more of our players. Wouldn't players who can't get a GB look in like Briers, Cooke, Calderwood, Hodgson,etc be relatively easy targets?

I suppose they could but on the other hand given they are all foaming at the mouth at what a mistake it was to go for Farrell in the first place it would be hard to justify raiding RL ranks once more.

I hope Farrell is a success in RU but if he isn't then maybe it would make it hard for them to justify flinging money in the direction of more RL players.

And it can't have passed their notice that our own top tier got whupped this weekend.

They might have been impressed by our win over the Aussies, but RU people always view the Kiwis as poor relations to the All Blacks. It might decide them that our lot are a bunch of overhyped losers after all - which could be one good thing to come out of this Tri-Nations debacle.
