Tigers set to hijack Sale Sharks deal

[JP14]

With Diamond in charge, and with his reported behaviour, would you play for Sale knowing there were alternatives?

Would you move to Leicester, given the current state of play and Challenge Cup rugby a real possibility ?

Our facilities and stadium (and weather mostly) are still all better than Sale.

Chris Foy now tweeting that all 3 are set to sign permanent deals with Sale.

Really?! Not good if true!

Not going to know anything for sure until official announcements are made. RB has said he thinks there will be some announcements this week

[Scott1]

Let's hope the BoD have contingency plans in case such an event should occur!

I wouldn’t say either club is assured of Champions cup rugby but our record is a lot better than Sales in that regard.
If things are still up in the air I would think that Diamonds recent outburst wouldn’t help Sales cause. On the other hand De Klerk agreeing a long term deal could be a draw for other Boks especially if they get offered the same release clause for international rugby that he has

[Scott1]

If they do sign for Sale I just hope it was rumours we were in for them which proved untrue or I think the shame and embarrassment might do for me!

[TigerMac3]

This aged well. The Daily Fail now reporting all 3 are signing for Sale...

Tbf it was only ever rumours on here.
Sale must be having a clear out to afford the people they are signing re signing

[Scott1]

Yeah theyve re-signed Ross,Curry and Beaumont and are now supposed to be signing the brothers. Has to be balanced out somewhere.

And a 4 year deal foe De Klerk won’t have been cheap

Exactly, how are Sale paying for this when I swear they’ve admitted they don’t pay up to the cap.

Come on Tigers, get the Du Preez twins signed up for everyone’s sake. Will show how far we’ve fallen if we don’t bag them.

[RagingBull]

OR TRP has it wrong.

You're usually on the money RB - is that a not so subtle hint that they have got it wrong?

From what I gather the Du Preez are all going Sale, and this has been the case for a couple weeks.
Sale have the most cap available in the league and are looking to spend it all from what I gather for next season.
Reckon they could have Million + cap to spend not counting Maquee signings.
kitshoff and PSTD both heavily linked to them and Snyman is being linked to Quins.

[Scott1]

Who are we being linked with?!!!

[RagingBull]

Who are we being linked with?!!!

You mean who have we signed but not announcement or who are we in talks with?
Because recently talks don't mean much, but we are in talks with some Internationals along with a few non Internationals but good club players.
