He's a bloke (and from what I can tell a good one) whose career is threatened by injury. He's also class player - the kick for Blair's try last week is probably my season highlight.
So I really don't want to see it end here for him. But the club does need to decide whether to stick or twist now. Even if he makes it back within a few weeks, the risk of having to complete any game he starts with 16 is significant. And you can't make new signings after the 8s start. On the other hand, if he could string 5 or 6 games together it'd potentially make a massive difference.
