Damn, that's 2 ex* HB halfbacks that could be playing for us instead of Eaton.
*Age group for Piri ....

Can anyone help us out with this Cameron Falcon guy? I see he is a yank https://www.usarugby.org/player/cameron-falcon/ and apparently played in a match I sort of watched in a mudbath a few weeks back but did not really notice him (he was the reserve hooker) and again in a game that I watched about thirty five minutes of on an astroturf ground two weeks where his side were into a wicked southerly. Perhaps if knew beforehand he was a hotshot I might have kept a closer eye on him. I note he had played prop in eight of his eleven appearances (two of which were off the bench) for Johnsonville.
I see he played a few games for Spotswood Old Boys in 2015, anyone up in the 'Naki able to throw any light on him?

I thought Alex Hodgman signed for Counties?
-
@African-Monkey Yes, I thought so, too, but that was only reported in the media. I haven't seen any announcement from Counties though.
