Nathan Hughes sent on loan to the Championship, thought he was still in George Martins pocket 😉

How the mighty have fallen. Maybe the colouring of his hair to match his car was the final straw

Read the story about Hughes in the Bristol paper where it asked, "Are you mad about Bristol Bears?" Unfortunately, there wasn't a box to reply, "Mad? I was furious!"

Kinda inevitable that some players may fancy moving with van Graan to Barf. Will be interested to see the progress they make next season.

It reads as though the De Allende story is more a case of Van Graan would like to take him with him, I doubt it's quite that straight forward though.

Nathan Hughes to Bath? Isn't their big problem that they don't work hard enough, so they've signed someone we'll know for not working hard enough? Smart.

It is a huge shame. Always felt the he was one England let get away. Let’s hope he can come back after some lengthy rehab.
