| As others have mentioned I would be against Watts coming until the end of the year, if we didn't sign Knight and could use that quota spot for a backrower or centre. Unless the plan is to play Fash and Watts in the backrow.  |

Sorry to be in the minority but I'd take Watts until the end of the season.If he's agreed a release with Cas then there may have been a pay off of some kind involved, in which case we may be able to pick him up a bit cheaper. Also taking him for the rest of the year doesn't guarantee that he's a starter every week. I'd gladly take him, and let him know at the point of negotiating a deal, that he may sit in the reserves most of the season, but I'd rather if injuries bite we had the option to put him in rather than Fash or Gardiner.Fully understand everybody's reasons for not wanting him and I do agree to a point. He can be disruptive, fitness might be questionable and he's not getting any younger. But now we have Eseh and Knight (supposedly) we arguably have time to let him get fit over the next month or so. If we could get him on a cheap wage and to act more of a back up than regular starter, then I wouldn't be against it. |

I'd take Watts to the end of the season what is there to lose? It was a stupid decision to sell him with no replacement in the first place. The sale was about the turning point in our fortunes.

Didn't make sense to me to be signing three props in the space of a week when we are desperate for a SR/Centre. Don't doubt Watts would've been a steady signing for rest of year but rather the cap space be used elsewhere. |

| I think to say never go back is just a cliche. I don’t think you can have too many props. Clearly Watts has opinions that doesn’t make him a bad acquisition. He has experience. If he’s not fit that’s a reversible condition. I guess there’s salary cap issues and a need for back rowers, centres so these decisions are never easy. Given our propensity if u pardon the pun for injuries I’d have him if he’d come and Cartwright will sort him |
