[QUOTE="psychic duck, post: 544586, member: 48703"] Scarlets hype a lot of their players. Remember Fenby for Wales? Those South Africans were signed to add "grunt" to the pack, and the Scarlets fans seemed to assume they would based on nationality and think they were great signings. But in reality, they have had little impact and the Scarlets front five is still not good enough. Tomas Vallejos is an odd signing as well. They needed a lock with grunt, but Vallejos is more of a lightweight lock compared to a heavier scrummaging and rucking type of lock. And he only gets on the bench for them, a poor use of a NWQ place. Manuel Carizza who they were linked with for a while would have been a much better signing as unlike Vallejos offers some good grunt and tackling/rucking/scrummaging abilities. They should have signed him. [/QUOTE]
