Only here for a short time (many would say thankfully) but certainly made an impression to those old enough to remember his brief tenure....
Talent was never in doubt but......

Richard Cockerill leaves Edinburgh with immediate effect. Interesting. Says in the statement that he's to pursue other opportunities. France, maybe? International stage?

Sounds like a fall out to me, leaving immediately gives me that impression.

Lack of money is what I believe is behind this, gossip has it that the players are leaving to get a decent wage.

Looks like Jake Kerr has signed for Bristol. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/57913626

Don't know where that leaves the other ex-Tiger Harry Thacker, who has had a torrid time of late with injuries.

I think he’ll be fine for now. As we’ve seen ourselves, you need at least 4 very decent hookers in a squad.

Big step down for him, crazy to think the likes of Bristol were looking at him before Christmas, the manner of his departure has obviously concerned suitors...
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Well according to the rugby paper which doesn't mean much.
Notice Bristol hasn't brought in a 10 or 12 this season, so doesn't seem like they are looking.

They picked up EQ Antoine Frisch a 12 from Rouen and gave Ioan Lloyd's younger brother his first pro contract. You'd imagine they'd both be cheaper and less high maintenance than Hardwick though. If Sheedy spends time away with Wales it does leave them with the two young Lloyds and Championship staple Tiff Eden.
