I agree about Jurevicias. I think he will slip under the radar and end up a very good signing.

I might learn to spell his name right as well. 

Thanks, Fred - an interesting and pleasing read. See you at the next home match v Montpelier...

Yep, I'll be at the Quins Head with one of the two pint cups! See you there Bolly...

To add a bit to the CSW debate, I heard him talking with some friends by the red zone at the end of the match and he said that after 5 minutes his lungs were having a conversation with him but with time played he picked up. He noted that the speed of the game was a step up from Championship where he has been playing the last few weeks and further recognised that Prem rugby would be even faster; he also commented that it was easier picking up the rhythm starting than coming on later. From what we saw on Tuesday IMHO he will be a good addition to the squad, a good solid running unit with some neat offloads, when the match fitness comes which can only happen with game time.

He might come good, but time isn’t on his side as he’s 30 not 20. For the time he’s had, to still not be match fit, or at least fit is perplexing considering how long he’s been on the books.

He’s certainly got some bulk and power for sure,  but I’m not sure he’s going to get the game time he needs to get to the level he needs, as Even next season there’s a fair few ahead of him even if Symons retires as rumoured

Just wish matas was bigger as he might be too small for lock. Wuch a goood player though so i look forward to how he can develop. Shame tiz is off as the battke between him lamb matas and hammond was very exciting
