Re: Mago signed : Thu Sep 14, 2023 4:09 pm  
I’ve been pretty clear that I’d have let him go but I understand why they’ve given him the deal. I look at the type of forwards we have and there are plenty of high energy, big minute props and having some impact from the bench is ideal alongside those. He’s been fantastic recently, one of the best forwards in the league, so that version brings loads to us. A years deal, with the option of a second keeps him on his toes.

Great announcement video and I’m also happy with the signing, he adds something different to the pack, he just needs to make sure he keeps up with the form from the last 2 months and not revert to previous form, got to say he looks like he’s trimmed up a little so it may well be that he was carrying some form of injury that he’s managed to shake? Or maybe he’s just knuckled down with his career on the line?

3 months ago i think we’d all have been against this decision, but he’s looked fitter, played longer minutes and gained confidence from that and it’s shown, brilliant video to announce it too. Hope he pushes on and helps us get that GF win.

I had heard he was carrying a hip injury.

Re: Mago New Deal : Thu Sep 14, 2023 4:54 pm  
I’d have let him go personally.

I didn’t like how his form was so poor for a lot of his time here but suddenly come the half way point and “contract renewal or shop window season” his form picks up. Further to that (and aside from that) I just don’t see where he fits in in 2024 with who we have and who is in front of him. I’m not going to go as far as to say ‘waste of a cap space’ nor a ‘waste of money’ but I will say we’d have better kept/spent elsewhere IMHO.

When you’re a team at the top we can’t be carrying passengers and that’s where I’d classify Mago I’m afraid.

Totally agree with you.
His performances over two seasons have been woeful. His improvement in recent weeks is from an exceptionally low bar and he hasn’t exactly ripped up any trees in his performances. I’ve seen comments where he’s been “exceptional”, “great”, “massive”. I’d say he’s been adequate and still incapable of doing decent minutes.
I will be exceptionally pleased if he makes me eat my words but he has a long way to go to change my opinion.
