Henry Purdy and Gareth Evans not yet signed new deals with Gloucester.

Would take both although Purdy is injury prone.

That was always going to be the risk London Irish took

Not the biggest fan of Purdy but Gareth Evans would be a handy addition to the squad. Very mobile and physical. Surprised they aren't keeping him on.

Tonks and Hamilton would be decent signings i think for us. Give us good depth in positions needed.

He's retiring from Super Rugby so that he can concentrate on the RWC. He will play in Japan for the final year of his contract post RWC.

They’ll certainly need him, are you sure he isn’t just going on loan to the Tahs until the WC is over?

Not sure JP,thought it was a Toomua type deal with him signing a precontract because he too falls under the cap rule.
