Just realised we have poached the Drua's starting 11 in Loganimasi, while Newcastle have signed Drua's starting 14 in Nasova. Looking forward to seeing them line up opposite each other next season.
Harry Hill : Loganimasi or Nasova, which is best ? Only one way to find out ...

Interested to see who the 9 is - can't think of us being linked to anyone bar Faf
Apparently we offered for Faf a few weeks ago and he turned us down.

Tom James would have been a handy one for next year. Experienced, EQP, good form. Sarries jumped in there first.

Personally I think he has more potential than Wills. Another Shark off to Red Bulls.
Not overly concerned with Obi leaving. He did OK when required, but never really showed that he was ready for Prem rugby. My only concern with keeping Wills over him is that Wills is perfectly suited to the box kick game. (Of course, the club may have had little say in the matter, if Obi wanted to go, and Newcastle wanted him)

As mentioned by @SSR . Our transfer dealings are an absolute joke. So many public failures.

Tom Curry the big one there. See sense please England and give him the summer off. This is, again, the issue with the central contracts as the RFU are effectively paying him in advance, meaning the expectation is that he plays if he's fit.

Harry Wells replacing Tshinuza at Chiefs. Proper enforcer second row, rate him a lot.

When does Sale usually confirm transfers , is it Fridays ?
Just a little surprised we have not confirmed Tshiunza signing yet.
To be truthful, a little disappointed as I don't see he addds anything other than a large medical
bill.

Deal likely confirmed internally over the weekend given Sale were down in Exeter. Get documents sorted and in order, then announce later this week.

Tshiunza confirmed - only a one year deal

Still think it feels like a waste of a non-EQP spot - constantly injured and another hybrid player when what we really need is a proper dedicated lump of a lock

Hope it works out, he did look very good at age grade before all the injuries - Chiefs fans don't seem particularly cut up about him leaving, though

Obviously take Raffi out of the mix, and hypothetically envisage that Gus has a hammy in pre season......where does that leave us............we will surely sign a first team SH to be no'1/2.....as much as I'm a fan of Hanson
