Seems like only yesterday he was attempting conversions for Tigers.
Still a favorite here.
His knees seem to be standing up well to the artificial turf too. I think a refresh of location does give some players extra longevity. He did not seem to be used as much as a crash ball runner by Falcons though.

I remember the fallout with Cockers and his departure well, but is what he says true? Did the club just not want him anymore?

I have no insider knowledge but I think it was purely just him and Cockers falling out

Interesting. I like how he says "Leicester is still his team"

Tomás Lavanini picked up his first - and certainly not his last, yellow card for Clermont in Bordeaux on Saturday as Bordeaux stretched their lead and got a winning bonus point. The leopard Lavanini won’t ever change his spots and Clermont may regret signing him.

I didn't think Lavanini was too bad for us tbh felt most his YC was more team warnings.

In fairness to Lavanini , his reputation has always proceeded him and he came to us at a time when we wanted and needed a physical presence in our pack as it was not (at the time) a surprise to see us get pushed around, out muscled and beaten up.
Believe it or not ,to me, he was never overtly aggressive enough.....
Seemingly heading rapidly toward senility .....Not long or far to go now , in fact, getting worse daily.....
