I'am not sure if this listing has been on the messageboard recently but it shows the arrivals & departures quite well.
Points of interest ~ Jordan Crane has retired ( presumably to continue his Bristol car wash business)
Luke Hamilton to Oyonnax, Gloucester showing Logovi'i Mulipola leaving Glous. at the end of this season.
Kyle Eastmond and Greg Bateman are so far void of clubs. Hopefully this link will update.

Verne Cotter to coach Fiji.A potentially very potent combination:

Think Crane was moving into coaching the Glaws youngsters or something?

Rumour I heard re Logo is that he's at Glaws until the end of the 2020 season and then he's off back to Falcons. Flacons have their players on furlough as there's no rugby until November so it worked out well for all three parties. Especially since Glaws lost Honeck without much warning.

Somewhat to be expected as he's nowhere near Wade's age.

Irish confirm signing of Rob Simmons, also they confirm that Ruan Botha will not be returning to Irish after his loan spell beginning of 2019/20 season and will stay in Japan.

Botha is a loss, Simmons is a great player but Botha was their player of the season.
