Sadly it's been confirmed

[Olyy]

Shame, but expected based on the strength of the rumours

We'll definitely be in the market for a replacement

[Flumpty]

I imagine that he's earned himself a healthy contract with Glasgow. Good luck to him - he's always been a full on player for us.

[DaveAitch]

He looked a little hesitant when he first played but has got better and better: a good honest player who just gets on with the game. I wonder if we shall see him in a Scotland shirt sometime 'soon'. I hope the move goes well for him.

One of the players we can claim we improved. Hope it’s simply financial. Hope he’s not best mates with Ewan.

[Elgar]

He improves noticeably almost game by game. Will be really interesting to see how much he can improve over another two seasons. Shame we won't see that happening in a Sale shirt but all the best to him. If Glasgow / SRFU are offering him a better deal or opportunity then it's thoroughly deserved.

Best of luck to JP, big shame we've lost him.

I can't help thinking that we would have wanted to keep him, so maybe we don't have enough cash for him to stay? Do we have to save the money for some big signings?

[Olyy]

I read that Glasgow have doubled his salary - presumably that's what he's on, not what we offered as an extension (if we did)

TBH I can understand him looking to move on - he's gotten a lot of game time recently but if Lood and Beaumont are ever fit at the same time he's 4th/5th choice
Maybe Glasgow have told him he's going to be in their first choice 23

[Flumpty]

Maybe Gregor Townsend has found the birth certificate for Wee Jimmy PooPlop McTavish DuPreez, that his Grandad lost all those years ago

If Towerbok and the Invisible man played side by side for Glasgow, then surely that would be the tallest 2nd row combo of all time
