oyoung will be good for ashort term solution.
whats the long term one.?
As a Glasgow Warriors Supporter the word in these parts was that he was injured playing a Glagsow Backup game a week or so ago - the unnoficial talk was that he had endend up with a dead leg. To be fair we have not seen much of him since the beginning if the season - there seem to be the belief in Glasgow that this has been due to niggling injuries more or less since October or so.
and were signing him?
From what I gathered he's the third international in a team only allowing 2 internationals. Depending on how Glasgow feels maybe they figure its not worth keeping him if they can't play him.
In the long run- why not groom James O'Connor to be a scrum-half? He is of slight frame and has a great skill set. We have a fair few options at fly-half and inside centre with Giteau, Daruda and Mackay capable of playing both and Hilgendorf and Staniforth there to add on the extras.
CO'Y has got a 3 year contract. I think this is a big sign that he is going to be hanging around for a bit. I do agree with you though James we should be grooming both Chuckie and JO'C for the future - sad as it seems this will be Jak's swan song with the Force this year - only he can prove us all wrong now...
I think it's a good choice (As long as he hasn't got a long term injury). O'Young knows JM's game set up / strategies and he should fit back into the club quiet well again.
Unfortunately we need a quick Force experienced replacement, otherwise it's Git's back to scrumhalf. :(
