Sackey was fine. We got him at the end of his career, he played
a handful of games, got a try or two and didn't make any
egregious errors.
Worst signings are people who you bring supposedly at their
peak, paying accordingly and then turn out to be useless.
PDJ/De Wet Barry would be high on my list.
Really dumb article.

Yep, Sackey was fine for what we hired him for, the
disappointments for me are PDJ and at least as bad, Jamie
Roberts who never really showed up for us. Whether it was him or
maybe they way we wanted to use him not suiting his playing
style I don't know but he seemed a better fit for Bath than he
ever did for us

Roberts as bad as PDJ? Think that's a bit harsh. I was very
disappointed JR wasn't anything like his previous best but PDJ
barely even played and on the incredibly rare occasions that he
did was very poor. At least Roberts made it on to the pitch and
performed - albeit never really setting the world on fire.

Norman Ligairi / Viliame Satala are two “back in the day” picks
for me

Bad for me...
PDJ
Roberts (SO disappointing)
Satala
Goneva (way past his best)
I would agree that T'eo has to be the worst signing any club has
made ever.

Did we sign someone who fell down the stairs getting off a
plane, and never played a game?
Have a very distant memory and thought it was for us?
Thought Sackey was bad his tackling non existent, but would say
PDJ worse as brought in as a it name

There's an interview with PDJ on, I think, The House of Rugby or
The Rugby Pod where he explains he was representing himself in a
court battle about his children during his time with us.

Very harsh on Sackey. He was at the end of his career and was a
last minute filler.
PDJ and Cronje are the obvious ones and I seem to recall Stuart
Abbott was a big disappointment. Also Tim Fairbrother and there
was another Kiwi recently who's name I can't remember - think he
was a lock.

Reddish, although to be fair to him he got injured and retired

Don't think Arwell Thomas had a great time with us!
