A downgrade of sorts maybe but better than having Gaskell & Lineham in those positions. That comes down to that quality of the initial squad thing again.

It's not like he's a misunderstood superstar.
He gets more than he deserves but some of the criticism is warranted.

Lineham is one of our very highest paid players and gives absolutely nothing in return. For a club continually stating it has no money he is that last type of guy you need in the squad. The stick is not without justification in my opinion.

From my understanding Lineham, Gaskill, Tafua and Proctor produce a combined cost approaching £400K . In my opinion not one of them serves a useful purpose. If we had someone who knew a bit about rugby and could use that to sign a couple of top quality players , this team would be a far more competitive entity.
I am sick of hearing our plight is down to money, yes it doesn't help, but stupid rugby decisions are the reason we are struggling.

Prity sure we pay over the top for players that would find it difficult to join any other SL club.
The clubs reluctance to spend reasonable money on qualitys left the club vulnerable, it's the clubs own fault.
The fat better solution would have been to add a quality player to it's ranks every season.
