"There was a time during the Kearney era where I looked at the team list and said 'Damn, that's an ugly looking roster'. We're regressing back to that. "

"We may not need one now but if JAC gets injured we are looking at a big issue. Moving Russell or promoting Tago ain't the answer. 
We need good outside backs and good middles. Oh, and a real 5/8."
