Not devastated to not have a half for the start. It would matter if we were in a competitive league, but we're not, so as long as we get someone in sufficient time before the 8s, so as to get them up to speed, that 'll be soon enough.
Well firstly I think it is a positive that the club recognise that he isn't what we need at 7. Now whether we can recruit the right player to replace him is another question. I wouldn't take too much notice on what Ross says though, I don't think he is given much insider information from the club. They seem to want to keep their signings under wraps as much as possible to announce to members first.
