Pearce and Sharks
Rugby Paper - Fissler - says Pearce has been up t'North to look around Sale following interest. I hope not, I was looking forward to a longer tenure than that at Tigers.
Also we are after Willis from Falcons, and Sale after Toby to replace Cipriani.

Re: Pearce and Sharks
Get Toby Flood back here! Class player!
Re: Pearce and Sharks
Toulouse fans might not agree....
His kicking percentages are not up to scratch and he has bulked up, consequently losing his pace.
Ummmmm !!!

Re: Pearce and Sharks
Interesting bit from same articles was the fact that Cipriani leaving Sale is a 'done-deal'.

Re: Pearce and Sharks
If I were Cips I would follow the money & sun as EJ has made it v clear he doesn't want him
Re: Pearce and Sharks
Following Toby perhaps? Perhaps that's why Toby is being linked with Sale. Nah, that'd be too neat.Knightonian wrote:If I were Cips I would follow the money & sun as EJ has made it v clear he doesn't want him
Opportunities always look bigger going than coming.
Re: Pearce and Sharks
Hope we keep Pearce.
Flood is past his peak.

Bit odd if Pearce went to Sale - can't see him getting ahead of Beaumont, unless of course we do the decent thing and take Beaumont in exchange.

Re: Pearce and Sharks
I hope Pearce stays, although I suspect he wasn't hoping to overthrow Jordan only to find McCaffrey stealing the shirt. To be able to rotate Pearce and McCaffrey, with Fonua providing impact, seems to be a good way to progress the 8 shirt.
Unless Sale want to sent Beaumont our way...

Re: Pearce and Sharks
Would be surprised if Pearce left. He's on the cusp of being starting 8.
Re: Pearce and Sharks
Don't know about Sharks but on today's performance he should be in consideration for the Saxons summer tour!!! Those two turnovers were sublime!!!
Re: Pearce and Sharks
hopefully he stays, with rotation, injuries and a 23 player match day team, it's not like players will be on the sidelines for too long....
cheers

Re: Pearce and Sharks
He is still Raw but obviously the coaches still rate him as he is a regular in the 23.
and TBH is he can't get ahead of McCaffrey (Who whilst brilliant isn't a natural 8) then how will he get ahead of Beaumont.
But as said i think we need to unburden Sale of Beaumont.

Re: Pearce and Sharks
I hope we keep him..he is raw yes but is powerful and has a great knack at being on the shoulder as for the tries he scored from Croft and Betham offloads this season..
However if we were to get Beaumont I wouldn't be complaining
