[QUOTE="BPM, post: 1040306, member: 59968"] Well not really ... your descriptions of Marchant and Devoto were completely inaccurate with no factual basis. You said Marchant ‘can only get a game on the wing for his club and struggled to get a game in NZ’. Two [I]factually inaccurate [/I]statements. Marchant is only playing on the wing for Quins at the moment because of injuries and suspensions for other players. He’s versatile enough to cover wing so has been moved because we still want him on the pitch. He’s very highly rated in NZ and played (and played well) when he was fit. The Devoto piece is more subjective but was way off. He is [I]nothing[/I] like Jamie Roberts. If you watch him play and make that assessment, I can only question your judgement. I’ve never reffed and I’m not 60, but I’ve played and watched since I was 7 years old. I’m not saying my opinion is more qualified than yours. The critical point here is that I can make the distinction between a fact and an opinion. [/QUOTE]
