Correct.
Re Singleton I am concerned he won't really be bothered but let's give him a chance. He's a good player and we need a consistent hooker at the moment!

Its not in his interest to not be bothered surely? If he turns up and isn't bothered he won't get selected, won't improve his international prospects and won't impress the coaching staff at Saracens who will definitely be watching any player they send out on loan. He has every reason to be bothered.

Re: Rumours
Have to say that although I'm not overly fussed by taking a player on loan for a year, no matter how good, the concept that a professional rugby player wouldn't try or wouldn't be bothered just does not sit right. Any player that has made it to this level is in my opinion going to be hugely competitive, and is going to want to give their all in a game situation. I'm sure that some train harder than others, but put them on the pitch and they will give it their all.

Who was the Aussie hooker we had (should have signed his brother, but cannot remember the name) he was more interested going on the lash if my memory serves correctly

Not bothering will help his England ambitions no end.
