[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 412090, member: 13611"] It's not actually true though. Clint Newland signed on a 3 or 4 month deal played 12 times last season, starting 5 ahead of players like Jack McGrath and Simon Shawe who have longer deals. In the last three or so seasons Ollie Le Roux, David Holwell and Guy Easterby have been parachuted in on emergency deals (of a couple of months) and seen action in the Heineken Cup ahead of players already under contract with Leinster. Chances were slim because he wasn't any use when he was given an opportunity. Maybe he'll come good and earn another move to Europe, he's certainly young enough and has the potential to improve. On the evidence I saw he seems like a poor choice for Leinster, although not quite as bad as the fat chancer of a prop, Juan Gomez who was truly appaling. [/QUOTE]
