I'd be astonished - and disappointed - if a Chairman of a sporting club would be that stubborn given the lack of quality options.

Indeed.

I am sure that we would have our eyes open slightly wider this time.

We'd be seriously limiting our options for quite sometime if we refuse to deal with Mimmis ever again. I understand he is one of the bigger agents down under and has a fair few high profile clients.

As Stul already said, Im sure we'll tread a lot more carefully round him in future and be less trusting than we were in orfords case.

So my source may have got mixed up with words. But we are interested in an Aussie 6 who hasn't played international and who is better than Leon Pryce, at least theres more truth in my source than some of the c**p that gets posted.

Well, its not really stubbornness

It's about not wanting to deal with someone who has been proven to be untrustworthy i.e he assured the club that Orford would return (as stated by Hood at the fans forum) when that was never going to happen.

But if Mimmis has control of most of the Aussie players then what choice do we have? Grrrr

Is there such a thing as a trustworthy agent?

Yeah, cos nobody in sport ever tells a wee porky in order to look after their own or their teams' best interests eh?

Are you really that naive?

I like to believe that there are still some morals in sport. But obviously I'm wrong to do so

Oh well

I'll try not say 'told you so' when we get screwed over by Mimmis again....
