Phipps going means White should be getting more starts for them
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Incredible amount of players and a number of their best players (or starters anyway) in there.

It’ll be an interesting few months to see how they start next season

Agreed! Not just that, but they don’t have the biggest squad anyway so a lot of their 2nd/3rd choice players in that bunch too. Their recruitment will be interesting to see!

The players without a club so far that interest me are
Marcel van der Merwe (Honestly maybe if he was mid 30's this might have been realistic as a 3rd choice but only 31 so nah)
Karl Garside (Prob more realistic as a depth TH)
Rob Miller
Marcus Watson

And those are mainly to do with potentially missing Heyes and a couple back 3 players.

Northampton sign Exeter Chiefs tight head Alfie Petch for next season, and extend Aaron Hinckley’s trial by giving him a full contract.

Most impressive seem to be Quins who have only lost a few and promoted academy players.

Quins, like us are one of the clubs yet to release a leavers list, so they may well be letting a lot more go, just nobody has announced them yet.
