Duncan Weir has been linked with a move back to Glasgow Warriors, although Worcester’s DOR Alan Solomons has strenuously denied these claims it’s still hard to take his word as gospel.

With his injuries and now walking away from Ulster while still in contract, not someone I'd ever want to join Tigers. Decent when fit.

It might not be one sided. The Irish Union aren't negotiating any contracts until January whilst they review their finances post Covid. Ulster might well be happy to let him leave a season early in order to be able to spend the funds on keeping other players. Ideally younger ones that get injured less.

Rumours took off on the internet in recent days after a keen-eyed motorist claimed that he spotted Devoto and members of the Wasps staff, including head coach Lee Blackett, in conversation in a motorway services station.

Worcester have announced the signing Duhan van der Merwe, another blow to the Scottish rugby clubs but for me a panicky statement signing from Warriors that could backfire on them.

If they loose Weir and Hougaard without adequate replacements they are really gonna struggle, they were talking on Rugby Tonight about too many teams have too much cap space taken up by luxury wingers and this strikes me as another case of that
