Given our limited financial resources, our glaring weaknesses elsewhere (backline) and the fact that Hardie can't have come cheap, can we justify spending that much money on our second choice openside?
I suspect that a full-time contract helped to entice the guy north to play international rugby so this is really an SRU expense rather than us splurging the club's limited budget.
I do agree that we could do with some more firepower in the backs but gift-horses, mouths, etc.
