Short term to cover 6 nations and maybe the World Cup would be a good deal
If Burns leaving early has afforded us Westley and Brown it does make sense. Fullback we needed a player, but we also needed a Scrum half so that makes sense for me.
Westley ?

In terms of Brown, we only have the most recent info to go on, when he was at Newcastle, where he wasn’t exactly carving up. Foolish to write him off though, we have no info on his fitness etc he may surprise you.

A companion for Welford?
Exactly, a white Tiger from what I can see on the pics
Could this be the Tigress for the Women's team? Equality etc..... :smt017
Tigers were advertising for someone new to don a mascot costume. Like many I assumed that they just needed someone new for Welford, but maybe it's for a newbie

I listened to the podcast this morning and I got the feeling that Bondi was being more playful with his "and there's more to come" statement
