Happy to discuss the points you have raised. Nothing wrong with a full and frank exchange of views. 1 - Harmes will always be revered as a Premiership player and he played well on the weekend. He also played some good games for us, but many more average ones. He was and always will be a foot soldier and his leaving was mutual. I don't believe he would make our team better. 2 - Nobody batted an eyelid when Baker was delisted after 15 mediocre games in five years. He also played well on the weekend, which brings his career tally of good games to a total of ONE. Do you think he'll still get a game once the players of the calibre of Bontempelli, Treloar, Weightman, JJ et al are available again? 3 - Your scepticism of ANB's reasons for leaving is based on the facts of a new father and mother wishing to return home for family support not suiting your narrative. We had no bargaining power and took what we could get. Would you have forced him to stay? 4 - You're shifting the goalposts. The fact remains that we did not choose to trade either of Jordon and Bedford. 5 - What have we replaced these players with? McVee. Windsor. Tholstrup. Langford. Lindsay. Players change clubs all the time. Not surprisingly, they will have good games at their new clubs. That's football, mate. No doubt there are some sooky fans of the original clubs of May, Lever, BBB, Langdon and Hibberd whinging that they were "let go". I understand that you, like all of us, are disappointed and frustrated with how our season has started. We all want success for our club, after all.
