So in what way is it ironic?

Interesting or notable, yes. Ironic? No.

Im still not sure all depends on his mental well being at the moment on his day he is class but very prone to costly errors can see him at stand off but then what about miller and rocky?

Ok, I'll accept the change to "Interestingly, we had a former winner and a player who went on to win a Lance Todd Trophy both playing together in our team of 1994.

David Hobbs and Henry Paul

I know his contract will have been factored in, clearly you have a record of not spending what we dont have. Frustrating on occasions but given the basket case of a club that we were is totally the right way to go. Personally just dont see tge benefit of the signing, unless we are losing more than Brough next year.

To me it seems like a one in (Gigot), one out (Brough). So essentially we’ve got the same number of pivots that we had at the start of the year.

Good player who despite being a full back by trade can fill in elsewhere.

I was gutted he couldn't agree a deal with Catalans.

After you had Morgan last season and saw his pace, Gigot is a bit different as I think he has a bit more bulk.

I hope he goes well for you.

I think this is a great signing, I have always looked at him as a class player, his only down side is his discipline, he seems to give away a lot of penalties - If we can cut that out of his game he will be a great addition to the squad.

I wonder where he will play?
