<p>The other news is the return of Kane Douglas after his RWC knee injury, and Leroy Houston back from Europe.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>They rated him pretty seriously up there, so will be interesting to see how he goes back in the fast lane. 188cm and 114kg which might be slightly better than when he left.</p> -
<p>I don't understand the hype over Leroy's return. He was touted as the next big thing, failed miserably to live up to the hype and disappeared.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The NH tends to rate anyone up there. He must have had the biggest rugby renaissance in the last couple of years.</p> -
<p>That would be the Bath with a crowded trophy cabinet?</p>

<p>that's either a wide angle lens from a funny angle or he should be known as the tongan owen finnegan.</p> -

<p>If he has lost as much weight as that photo indicates then they might be converting him to hooker</p>

<p>Astute call! Given the mobility and athleticism he displays and the tendency for hookers to be an extra centre in open play, he'd make an excellent modern hooker like Coles or Cronin.</p> -

<p>If you believed what the irish said about Rocky Elsom you'd be forgiven for thinking he went up to the corporate boxes at half time and if anyone was running low changed water into wine. </p> -

To be fair, I even remember watching a few Leinster games and asking myself, surely that can't be Elsom, the same guy that ran upright, had poor handling and was basically being picked by the Tahs more on schoolboy reputation more than anything. <br><br>
He was excellent for the boys in blue. -
<p>3.3C there right now. Fuck that.</p>

<br>
But fuck, that had to try hard to force that penalty. If it takes 5 or 6 or 10 seconds to finally break the front for they deserve a medal, for not cheating, not a penalty.<br><br>
The rules are fucked.
