  Does anyone know why he left/was let go by Ospreys?  At 26 he should be coming into his prime I would have thought.
  

  
  Reading through the comments on the Walesonline piece, it appears his agent had lined up a move down south that didn't come off. By the time that fell through, the Hairsprays had already made the deal for North & the deadline for Hassler asking for an extension had also passed, so he was left without a contract.
  

  
  Ah that makes sense - thank you

• You do wonder if we might have dodged a bullet there, the clue being in the name.

• I wonder if, like leaving for "personal reasons", this isn't just a nice way of saying we tried him but didn't offer him a place.
