Race to bottom (of club imploding) between us and Gloucester by the looks of things.

Behind the scenes all is apparently not well at Gloucester.George Skivington possibility has his work cut out.Not the easiest or best role for a first time out Head Coach.Many factions vying for positions and many voices trying to make themselves heard
Seemingly heading rapidly toward senility .....Not long or far to go now , in fact, getting worse daily.....

As far as we know, the only turmoil at Tigers is a few players potentially leaving. The others have signed reduced contracts, which is a pretty big commitment, and the coaching team looks strong.

Blues winger Mark Telea, who qualifies for both Samoa and South Africa on parentage and New Zealand on residency, has extended his contract (like Sotutu) to 2022.

Big fan of the bloke, very good pure hand off (not the bump off style more common these days) and is some finisher, great work again by the Blues.

Should maybe include Irish, Wasps and Newcastle in that list, and of those 5 I know which camp I’d rather be in at present

Maybe they won't finish bottom next season!

Does anyone know if the French season is going to be completed? If not are Stade relegated?

Neil Fissler's initial summation on the apparent London Irish contract stalemate see him name the following players as having potential issues with the 25% pay reduction applied to their contracts:
Nick Phipps,Paddy Jackson,Curtis Rona,Sean O'Brien,Sekopi Kepu,Waisake Naholo and Adam Coleman (apparently already attracting Japanese interest).
Speculation or informed journalism ? take your pick.

I understood the season would not be finished but there would be no relegation

I would take Curtis Rona as a replacement for Manu even though he is more of a Betham style player.
