I'd agree with all of the positives on here. Not so much the
negatives. A lot of players missed tackles last season - that's
one of the reasons why we leaked so many tries. I don't seem to
recall him being too anonymous in games either. His good
qualities and good games always seemed to go unmentioned. Not
the world's greatest lock, but a solid and reliable player as
well as a loyal servant to Quins, and a really nice bloke.
Best of luck Charlie, may you thrive in the new environment.

I agree with most of the positives and negatives, and like
Fursty I'm not going to miss him much.

One of those players who you could see was trying his best but
often seemed to be half a step off the pace.
Wish him well. Sometimes a new environment outside your comfort
zone can bring a step up in performance.

Maybe the change will work for him - although Codling may have
had that effect as well.
Wishing him all the best, except against us of course!

Hope he goes well. Bulking up 10kgs and working on a lower body
position will make all the difference. Change of scenery could
see a huge improvement.

Rugby pass is now saying that Graham Rowntree is going to Wasps
so may not be huge change. Being in Coventry would be ideal
location for him.

Couldn't agree more with this! I was really impressed when he
initially broke through from the academy but he seemed to stall
and hasn't improved since

i think he is the type of player that will benefit from a change
of scene - time will tell but good luck to him and thanks for
the memories.

Yes, he'll probably go fine. He's a pest at the lineout, so it's
a good match...
