Pretty sure Hammersley isn't coming to us and has signed elsewhere.
Think Austin Healey and other people in the media are saying Sale.

Does he really offer anything over Worth? In my mind he doesn’t.

Yes. He offers more of a threat by finding gaps better than Worth.

I would certainly be chasing Wilson, despite the WC, and get him signed up on a 4 year contract if possible. I can't envisage the POD doing this though.

Newcastle are the only prepared to loan him out for a year D4.

Takulua would be a godsend as a high impact sub and safe pair of hands during international breaks. We've not had a lot of luck acquiring players from other prem teams the last few seasons though, always seem to end up on the proverbial hind teat. I'd have Rodney Ah You just because him and Genge would make a great comedy double act.

He’s spent the best part of 18 months on the injury table, no thanks. But yes I’d love Takulua, absolutely.

Yes this may be construed as indecent haste but you can be sure others will be in there like a shot. As well as Callum Green coming home I would love to see him joined by Sinoti Sinoti and Mark Wilson. Both are outstanding players and would be great additions to our ranks. I can only urge the BOD to move fast or we will miss out. He who hesitates etc etc..
Who would want to join a club that is not in the Heineken Cup? Tigers are the second worse team in the league at the moment.

They would not be joining Tigers now. They would be joining when the new players are here and the ten or so players we are missing through injury have recovered.
