Sounds pretty promising, I guess if he is coming in it seals Jonny May leaving

I would have preferred Lam but nonetheless Nadalo is a great acquisition.

Don't know about it sealing May leaving though.

also on his instagram story he is at luton airport, so he was in the country during this spotting.

Nadolo wouldn't come cheap though surely, is there really that much cap space being freed up in the backs without May leaving?

Imagine the chaos we could cause with Genge, Lavanini, Taufua, Taute, Manu and Nadolo all charging about! He can kick as well when he has to. Also cousins with Tevita Kuridrani so if he likes it in the East Midlands...

It would be a lot of fun watching Nadolo in a Tigers shirt, although for me Lam would have been the more pragmatic signing. As much as I would miss May, I hope it would mean he's leaving, because that much cap on two wingers is probably not a wise use of resources.
