[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 871388, member: 56232"] Or alternatively it shows Jones read it just right and that Fearns can't take things not going his way. You look at how he reacted to the Bath situation. The whole Burgess thing was a right fuckup (another guy who then renaged on his contract) but Fearns essentially told us to get stuffed and then went chasing the money in France rather than finding another English club. He seemed to be like Armitage in thinking he was so good an exception would be made for him even after he went abroad. Now Jones tries to tempt him back but tells him where he needs to improve (as he has done with every England player) and Fearns throws a hissy fit AND pulls out of a contract. This whole series of incidents suggests he has completely the wrong mentality for international rugby. He is a player who would take being dropped very personally and negatively. I could not see him going through what Robshaw did and reacting the same way. Anyone who thinks they are so good they don't need to do what every other player must do doesn't belong in an England shirt. [/QUOTE]
