Were we to let Snyman go, promote Henderson and then look to bring through Tom Manz and Lewis Chessum a bit more that would be good move. Unfortunately Snyman hasn't really managed to remain injury free and make an impact. If Martin is to be a more hybrid role then another backrow (maybe a 7/8) wou...

Highlanders. Just seen his release has been agreed to he can arrive ahead of the opening rounds there. Wonder if this means we may go for someone else as a bit of late season juggling. Shillcock maybe?? Shillcock would be really great! That was just a guess, albeit he’s contracted till the end of t...

Glad he got to come back and get his moment in the sun at Twickenham last year. Always seems he left under a cloud first time round, clearly didn’t want to leave but seems he was a pawn in the Ford move. Freddie can leave head held high.

Having had time to think on the game, it’s actually not doom and gloom. Wigglesworth summed it up well at the end, it was inaccuracies on our part. Lineout which is normally strong. Scrum creaked, which is a bit of a worry. However, I feel we kicked less than normal, and tried to attack ball in hand...

Seen some match reports listing him at prop, some at second row.

Very good signing West. Does it indicate Cronin could be out for a while This was my first thought. Cronin did not look comfortable when he came off, but West is a very very tidy addition. Pleased with that. He’s one of those that is perhaps just under international level but performs to a high lev...

Out worked and outthought, irrespective of the injuries.
Sale showed more urgency and ambition, we have just not been accurate enough.

How long was West’s deal at Ealing, he could come into the discussion in LH options. Also worth noting Rodrigo Martinez doesn’t appear to have been picked up after Wasps demise, another promising prop.

I've always assumed the reason we managed to secure Waters and Sinfield was the promise that Borthwick would take them with him when he was inevitably appointed by England. It was always my assumption that the club were aware of this and the recruitment of Wigglesworth (and possibly Gopperth) was c...

Also got to allow for the fact Oghre came available unexpectedly, same as Atkinson, maybe we liked them and just decided to move for them whilst we could, never planned into the squad balancing, so there may well be some re-jigging.

Personally I’d be looking at Matt Kvesic if we think we need another back row, one maybe just below international standard so we get them all year round. Still not got a club as far as I can see.
