Think we said in the off season that we had to offload some
players due to cap.
Would rather have had cipriani than cat, but not if it meant
Smith getting the hump and leaving

Personally I think DC is an outstanding player 90% of the time
but also an "energy sapper" 100% of the time.

However, if we'd signed him instead, we would have had him,
Smith, Lang, and Cat all as senior squad FHs. That's too many
for that position. Plus, he wouldn't have come in as a Marquee
player (as I understand the rules) so that would have been a
large chunk of our celery cap taken up. Would we have been able
to do as much business in transfers this time round in line with
Gussy's plans if we'd allocated as much of the cap as we would
have to Cipriani?

So we would have had 1 top quality FH and a real prospect. Plus
two other guys.
