Heard that Quins have some holes to fill in the coaching department, not sure a return to Tigers will be on the cards.

Between flannery and Jones not sure what forwards hole needs filling.
I feel the two prem clubs that are realistic are Gloucester and Sale Sharks is West goes as rumoured.

Outside of that I reckon Top 14

The timing of this seems to me like it could be as a result of the SRU not investing in Edinburgh as much as RC would want? Hence, potentially more appealing offers.

Wonder what the players who did re-sign/join will think.
My money on Edinburgh promoting from within.

Nothing against Cockers per se but Edinburgh lost 10 of their 16 league matches last season and managed just one win from five outings in the Rainbow Cup according to the BBC

not sure any Tigers fan would suggest a DOR with that record had done well here so surprised Cockers gets a pass from some

Also about half of their players play for Scotland for large chunks of the season and they can’t just buy in stacks of foreign players to replace them .. the coffers are fairly empty at the SRFU
