Nick Isiekwe too. You'd think Kruis and Itoje are away most of the year so there's a chance he gets some minutes but there's as much a chance with GG Toolis away with Scotland and rest protocols.
Saracens said an academy loan and seemed to suggest he's there for the A team league as much as anything.
Doesn't really make sense for anyone except Sarries A team.
my bad FKL, meant to include Isiekwe (meant to) who is an excellent player.
Cockerill singing the praises of CHH's ability and potential has a rather hollow ring to be frank about it.
he has wanted to shift him, and Sarries have spotted CHH (they regularly scout for talent at our (and Welsh) pro teams, academies and age grades.
I doubt he will be back and if he hacks it with Sarries Cockerill has some explaining to do
My concern is he's behind 5 absolute athlete freaks at Sarries. If he gets serious gametime in that rotation we've missed out on a serious player. I wouldn't be surprised to see him go to another English side after a good run at Sarries. Good luck to him but I agree there's a hollow ring to Cockers praise. I'd rather have CHH playing than Murray Douglas and Sam Thomson to be honest.
