People seem to be giving it as much credence as the Itoje to Tigers rumour, but I for one wouldn’t be surprised.
Does that mean we are getting Itoje then? :smt003
How does Itoje get on with Steve Borthwick?

Believe this was initially attributable to The Rugby Paper , couple of weeks back...

All kicking off now with LI complaining they've heard nothing from Glaws and that Skivington has a year still on his contract and hasn't served his notice period. Sounds like the start of an expensive negotiation for Glaws

I suppose they can use the money they get from suing Sale over Van Rensburg. More than a bit hypocritical for them to be so outraged about that and then do very similar themselves with Skivington.

It will be interesting if LI reduced Skivington's salary because of the coronavirus situation. If they've breached the contract first then he can pretty much walk away depending on how that negotiation went.

L Irish very keen to state that the terms of his contract have not been breached. Perhaps, reading between the lines, Skivington believes his contract has been breached but L Irish clearly disagree.

Does anyone know what Cipriani's contact has been with Skivington as a coach to be so gushing in his praise and delight in the announcement?

He played with him at Wasps. Unsure if Skivs work with LI or Samoa will have been of note to Cips particularly. He does seem very excited far more so then the usual club written press release.

Perhaps George has told Danny he is the best thing since sliced bread & is a better player than Dan Carter, Phil Bennett & Barry John combined.

Note to Danny most of us think multiple England coaches might be more correct about you..

I think they'd be correct if they'd won a World Cup.
As it is they might as well of picked average Joe.

Yet England won the world cup with arguably a conservative FH & game plan..

Not many doubt the talent of Cipriani, it's the other parts, rugby is a team game after all.

Strangely despite his talent & travels few teams have won trophies with Cipriani at fly-half.
