Mind you, that's what our current commitee is doing ...

I don't know if it is standard practice for star players or not, but wanting KPIs for others in his contract makes O'Connor sound like a bit of a douche.

We are better of without him if his conditions come anywhere near that. I mean all that hassle and whats to say he won't get himself injured and miss half the season. Oh for another Scott Staniforth.

[mudskipper]

it appears that the O'connor camp wanted to put KPI provisions in the contract
not for the player,no,no,no;,on the rest of the team, FFS

no wonder Reid told them to bugger off!

How would the KPI work on a 1 year contract?

[Bystander]

Another point, where does this leave the younger O'Connor ?

The younger O'Connor is only an average young player, many of our local players are far better than him. He will probably go back over East ? Non-issue really.

[zimeric]

the way JOC played in the last game makes me wonder if the KPI would apply if he had shitty games or was responsible for a loss, which pretty much summed up last week to be fair he kicked us out the game.

i say we should try to grab hilgendorf back from the rebels...

bring over a young gun from SA thats willing to immigrate and develop one of our many props into a hulking beast of a TH

I agree - bring back Hilgi. Look at Stannard as an example. Had some success here. Starved a bit of an opportunity through our purchase of giggling superstars (not mentioning anyone in particular but Drew comes to mind!!)

Stannard went off to 7's. Did the hard yards, sat on the bench and took his opportunity. Bring Hilgi back I say. As has been said previously... a superstar team is better than a gaggle of superstar princesses!!!

Going over East with the rest of the academy probably

Makes you wonder as to the current status of Brock James' contract with Clermont

Ahh until 2012.

[Hansie]

JOC was a member of the Cottesloe Rugby Club.... Has anyone thought to ask how they feel?

[fulvio sammut]

Gutted.

I hear they're taking up a collection to buy some third graders from Nedlands as replacements ...
