Re: Arno Botha
CSM are huge and they represent many big names including Ruan... don't see Botha listed on their A list of SA players but he may be on page 6 of others...damianmcr wrote:Aren't they one if not the biggest rugby agents?

baggy... There could indeed be advantages in bringing in a person that previously worked for said agency and handing him the responsibility of dealing with player contracts.. if that is the correct understanding of what happened then maybe maybe it is not a bad thing to have acquired a poacher turned gamekeeper..BaggyTrousers wrote:I understand the Esportif concerns to an extent, but surely there is also the possibility for the connection to work for us, the possibility that there are guys there who are close to both that may swing a deal for us rather than some club where they have no connection. Whilst we hang on the crap things that have happened and absolutely consider some were ill-advised, we also need to understand that injury isn't exactly a rarity in rugby.
There is also the fact that not every player you buy in will necessarily work out anyway - Afoa for instance where only his wife was really the problem, he was not a bad signing as a player, quite the opposite in fact.
My thoughts are that we overdo the Esportif thing, though admittedly I have never bothered my arsecrack to check how many large scale agencies operate in rugby.

NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

Don't need him. Marcel looking lean, fit, well and limp free (ooerr matron) in Tesco Castlereagh road, wearing full training kit. Herbst with him looking about a stone lighter and much tighter. Hope Jonno's been beasting them..

It's the hope that kills you.

Yeah probably a good idea to shove it in some frozen peas to reduce the swelling.rorybestsbigbaldnoggin wrote:At least you'd something to rest the boyo against.BaggyTrousers wrote:Remember it well Dave, a liaison with a handsome MILF over the Birds Eye frozen veg section.Dave wrote:We've all had a boner in Tesco at some point in our lives.
