I think our contract renewal process is going to become increasingly difficult over the next two/three seasons we have a lot of top performers due to renew and I can’t see us affording all of them, unless some of the reported CVC windfall is used but that would not be a sustainable model.
Probably for another thread but does anyone have the OOC list for this season handy? We usually get a couple of renewals at least announced in the run up to Christmas and the 1872?
VdW needs capped to stay SQ and I'm not sure he's really good enough for a Scotland cap. Could be the one who is SQ and then suddenly NSQ again.
Sevens would count. Given there are so few options and not playing him means a 2 year wait then it may be a case of "needs must" even if very cynical.
