[QUOTE="Hound, post: 873056, member: 75918"] How much of that is because he's been a career player for London Irish though... If you take straight try numbers out of the equation and go eye test by his speed, his size, how he finishes the opportunities he DOES get... Whoever you guys take, he's not going to be getting Irish opportunities... or Saracens opportunities... or Wasps. They'll be getting the looks that show up on the International stage. And at the pace, and space that comes with the International stage. Ojo has international pace to me. And he looks solid enough to take a hit and keep pushing through. I think if he played on the Chiefs or somewhere we'd probably be having a different conversation. I figured he must have just been blacklisted after that incident. That said, he's 32. You don't go chasing wingers in their 30s if you have any regard whatsoever to your future. ...unless you're Australia and go diving for Drew Mitchell again. [/QUOTE]
