Despite Premiership interest from amongst others Wasps and Harlequins it seems that Stormers 6ft 9in Lock David Meihuizen is set to remain with the South African club.
An interesting aside ; the player remains dual qualified for both England and Scotland in addition ,of course ,to South Africa.

Saints sign Courtnall Skosan
Was a good player circa 2017, be interesting to see if he can replicate that form in a new environment.

Fissler is spreading a rumour that Toulouse winger Cheslin Kolbe is in contact with Toulon, even though his contract with Toulouse is until 2023. Kolbe has been key to Toulouse’s success in the last two seasons so surely the rumour has no foundation whatsoever.

Not sure if this is down to Neil Fissler , but the speculation does seem to be growing.....

Really will be interesting to see if fire comes with the smoke.

:smt017 why would he want to? Toulouse are one of the dominant forces in European Rugby at present and Toulon are trying to get back there. I thought Toulon had stopped throwing money around so it can't be that much of a financial difference can it?

Just read that he’s the highest paid player for Toulouse and won’t be available to play for them until December, and that a serious compensation deal would be negotiated for his release. As Toulouse will have lost millions during the pandemic, they could recoup a significant sum. Nothing, however, has been agreed - far from it from what I understand, but with Toulon’s seemingly bottomless pocket, it could happen.
