Glynn has been picked at 10 for La Rochelle and there’s a P Tuilagi on the bench for today’s opponents Perpignan.

As a young flyhalf he's got an ideal mentor as head coach and a team that saw both of their experienced 10s leave in the summer. They signed replacements but it's a good time to try and make a claim for the shirt.

Interesting that he's being allowed to thrive at 10 over in France, whereas here he was very much a 12 to Sam Costelow's 10. A shame in hindsight (understandable politics aside!) given the disappointment with Lancaster (very much a 12 playing 10).

Costelow was (and still is) a certain future international. Not a surprise Glynn had to move to 12 to accommodate him. Shame we couldn't have helped both but such is the way of pro rugby.

Glynn was most likely always going to move to France his family live their and he’s a JIFF player I believe so he’s even more valuable to a French team.

Looks like Marco van Staden playing for the bulls tonight.

Didn’t think he would be back that quickly after he left Tigers at end of last season.

From what I've read him not staying was down to insurance issues
