So you are happy with no Wiese replacement?

Fissler does mention that we are still in the market for an 8

Are you going to tell him that to his face?!

I think sometimes,and I’m more guilty than most,we have an idea about a player and no matter what he does we can’t change our mind about him. But I genuinely can’t see ANY attraction with Daly,he’s always a disaster waiting to happen. But he keeps being picked over and over again by different coach...

One for those of us who remember Bill and his admonition to KEEP THE FAITH.

Ah men to that

Fissler reporting that West is being targeted by Saints, among other things: https://www.rugbypass.com/news/fissler- ... -in-talks/

following on from the Rolling Maul boys becoming proper podcasters by interviewing Andrea Pinchen which was a great listen, Andy Goode has interviewed Dan McKeller on this weeks Rugby Pod, not gotten to it yet but Goode doesn't normally pull his punches so should be interesting. McKellar is also on...

Thing is Scott isn't really slowing down, so I don't really care if he's 30, 34 or 24. We've had great success with worrying about if players are good enough & ignoring their age recently. We should never sign or release someone purely on their age. None of our other backs read the game as well...

Agreed. Scott’s age and his desire to move back to Scotland may be factors Has he said he wants to move back north of the border? Not directly but is involved in at least one restaurant business in Scotland. I also believe he and his wife both have extended family up there I wasn't picking at you, ...

Has he said he wants to move back north of the border?

According to Fissler:

George Bridge being tracked by Bath
Louie Johnson of Newcastle is being tracked by Saracens
Guy Pepper to Bath
Werner Kok to Ulster
Luke Cowan-Dickie to stay at Sale
Stuart McCloskey thinking over a move to Bayonne
Magnus Bradbury returning to Edinburgh
Sam Spink to Saracens

Will not not break a confidence but Centre position (s) is resolved X2....(thus far,at least)

Should we be excited by said names?

Wasn't this brought in, primarily (but not exclusively), to help south sea islanders who were scooped up by NZ and Australia to be able to represent the land of their birth and thus strengthen the likes of Tonga, Fiji and Samoa? It's since been touted as a right of passage for anyone not getting sel...

First time in 10 years the Crusaders have started 0-2

The Crusaders have been awful tonight. They have lost some players but in the past they have re-generated but they look a shadow of their former selves at the moment

The Warratah's have been decent.
