One omission I noticed is Stewart Maguire, any word on him?

I heard at the start of this season (and hinted on here) that we wouldn't see too much of him as apparently he was crocked before he joined us, and was signed prior to having any medical. Who knows, maybe hes grand (and I wish so) and will stay with us (and again, I wish for this also) next season and beyond. He came on against Toulouse if I remember correctly, so couldn't be written off at all.

Packie, any hints? What province is he from? What level of experience? Is he a household name?

Fets seems really to be disappointed with his own contribution from hearing what fans are saying about chats with him. That's a good sign. It's great that he is holding himself to a high standard, and if he can step it up that would be brill.

Ha Ha never heard that and don't think i'll ever hear it again :blush: It was great to meet him but trying to talk to him is like trying to squeeze water from a stone very shy guy.I had a great chat with fets very nice bloke, he was saying he got very homesick through out the year but promised we'll see the best from him next year.

I see you updated your profile pic Connolly. Nice to put a face to the handle. Anyone ever tell you you look remarkably like Ray Ofisa? :-P

100% agreed ummm.Duffy has been playing great stuff in Elwoods reign.I think a lot has to do with the fact that he has been kept at full back.

Packie knows what he had for breakfast this morning but he won't share the information with anyone!
