Let’s hope his departure doesn’t come back and bite us.
Only if Reed develops a running game. Last year his defence and early balls were exemplary. His lack of running game stopped him being a top tier 9. He didn't engage the markers before the pass nor did he dart out when opportunities arose.

IMHO the only thing that will bite us is if Hodgo's age catches up to him. Perhaps we should have looked for a younger replacement. Also our hooker depth is pretty horrific, with another old merkin (Rein) and only part time hookers in Hands and Yates behind him.

The 21's hooker last year Kruz Niutili-Schmidt looked like a good prospect. Hopefully he can step up.

Reed is history as far as I am concerned. We got as much as we could out of him.

He did a deal with the devil so he can only hope it works out for him and Gus doesn't flick him to the scrapheap within 3 years once a highly rated 18-19 dummy half comes through.

I didn't like how he handled the negotiations either should have told his manager to go to a more private setting while still contracted to us.

And give up the chance for a succulent Chinese meal?
