Salary cap to rise and another marquee player to be allowed as well.
French based players seem to use us as a way to negotiate a bigger contract back in France. The young Biarritz winger Thomas being a prime example from last summer.

Re: 2014/15 Rumours.
Will Genia rumoured to have already have an agreement in place with Barf, according to ESPN http://www.espn.co.uk/premiership-2014- ... MP=OTC-RSS.
Re: 2014/15 Rumours.
If the new allowances are agreed it will be an interesting competition as to who signs the biggest name players. Tigers as we all know usually do not sign big name players so will be interesting to see if that now continues.
Regarding the salary cap increase and second marquee player I believe that both should only be available to clubs that at least break even. Of course being a one eyed Tigers supporter I would say that, but it would put and end to the sugar daddies being allowed to increase their bottomless splash on players whilst their business is making a loss.

Re: 2014/15 Rumours.
Nyanga could be an interesting signing, possible planning for Matera potentially going to play in Argentina? That said I highly doubt we will get him when you look at the other clubs who could pay probably double what we can afford

Re: 2014/15 Rumours.
Fonua -----> Leicester (according to pruebob on the unoffy) was either this season or next season deepening on if they got relegated.
Re: 2014/15 Rumours.
That's an interesting signing for Bath. On his day he is world class but recently he's lost his place in the wallabies due to injuries and poor form. That's the standard of player this new rule will enable us to to go out and get now and that excites me massively. Wouldn't mind Savea, Folau or Read to be honestlonglivethecrumbie wrote:Will Genia rumoured to have already have an agreement in place with Barf, according to ESPN http://www.espn.co.uk/premiership-2014- ...

Re: 2014/15 Rumours.
Excuse my confusion. Is this thread about players that may be moving in this (2014/5) season or next (2015/6) season?

Re: 2014/15 Rumours.
Talking about movements during this season, so any news that has happened this season, doesn't have to be that they are playing for that club this season.Cagey Tiger wrote:Excuse my confusion. Is this thread about players that may be moving in this (2014/5) season or next (2015/6) season?
If that makes sense.

Geordan Murphy off at the end of the season. Not able to quote the source, other than a conversation I had at Kingsholm yesterday.

Did your source say if it was His choice? Club choice or mutual?
