Did you guys watched the homage by espn to Hernández? Awesome.


First off, he admits that he hasn't played the same rugby since he tried it at Sharks and his back injury.

He explayed the injury that basically costed him a hall of fame career. He talked honestly about living abroad and playing pro (he missed his dad's death); really good stuff.

Not a way to say goodbye to the most talented argentinian player I have ever seen. Truly, a unique and remarcable player able to do a tremendous amount of things well and bring flair, fantasy and magic to the game.


About the selection of the players, what I don't understand is the concept of failure some of you guys are using: how is Cordero a failure? He went away on his own wish, he is doing very well in exeter... I don't see it.


About Imhoff: why bring the best wing in europe or so (one of the best at least) at the top of his career to a world cup afer these disastrous two years without him? I mean, we have so many better players than him, like Orlando.


I actually like Bofelli a lot, he brings great air game, just like Tuculet.


I would bring Patricio Fernández in june and see how it plays out.  He has a lot of experience in higher rugby levels than any other options we currently have.

I would bring Socino, just because I really dislike our centers right now.


Figallo is a no brainer. There is no better scrummer prop in the whole world.

Isa is one of the most powerful ball carriers in the world. Kramer is not. Ortega Desio is certainly not. Why bring one of the most talented young players in the world back to us? It's just a poor question.

Got tired of writing, end of the post.


P.D: As long as Dylan Hartley is playing international, Lavanini will not be the dirtiest tier 1 player. Only the dumbest.


Cheers boys.
