I know.

Don’t see why that wouldn’t make it anymore unlikely.

Bristol announce 11 players to leave after the end of season, one of which is Jack Lam which surprises me.

Matthieu Bastareaud is joining Rugby New York after the World Cup.
No doubt a lucrative move for him and good timing as his days in the French XV are probably coming to an end.

Apparently he's taking a big pay cut and I'm sure the hamburgers will keep him in fine fiddle. :smt003

Wonder where Lahiff is going? Back to Aus?, surprised to see Van Rooyen on that list too being as he only arrived this season

I wonder if a team could development Cameron Skelton similarly to how Will Skelton has come on at Sarries now he has dropped the weight?

Van Rooyen and Vuna would be decent pick ups in my opinion.

Very odd with Van Rooyen, experienced prop that play both sides and has been solid for Bath this season. They don't have a great stable of props at the Rec I thought he'd have been kept on for at least one more season.

Similarly Jack Williston only joined last season didn't he? Young centre who seems a decent understudy to Joseph. If Bath don't want him I doubt he'll have problems picking up a contract elsewhere unless there's some injury issue.

London Irish have signed Sekope Kepu, that is a great signing in my opinion, yes he will be away for a while for the Exiles but they have the likes of Cilliers to cope without him.

I think they will stay in just, Worcester to get relegated!
