Force's Shepherd in great shape

[James]

Earlyish in 2006? He played our first couple of games as the starting fly-half. When he got injured both of Hilgendorf and Brock James were trialled there. Mitch must have seen something in him.

[Ecky]

Yes - it was way early in the piece. We all wondered in the crowd what he'd done, because he just caught the ball, then dropped it then dropped to the ground himself, then he was helped off. No contact or anything to suggest he was injured. I guess something just went "ping".

[DinkyDi]

Talking of Daruda as a replacement 10 - why not pick up Stephen Brett after the Jap season is over? He would be a cracking replacement but unsure as to eligibility

[James]

He's eligible as a development player but he's on a 2 year deal with Toyota. They are very unlikely to release him, and even if they did, the residency requirements for foreign development players means that he wouldn't be able to go back to play in Japan and therefore the ARU wouldn't approve it.

WTF has he done to earn such rotten luck?Among our top few on ability and class but can't get on the paddock. :-(
On the bright side, Wara, Nalaga, Mafi all on team. Game time for Godwin.

According to EWF official page

Super Rugby Caps: 80 (60 Force, 20 Waratahs)

Agree, terrible luck - he's a class act and had more than his fair share of injuries.

The question we should ask is how many games has he missed?
