Surprised French teams are interested in him - seems to give away a penalty at almost every scrum.

That is an interesting one. Never seemed to meet his potential and have away too many dumb penalties. Salvi had the reputation at Bath but excelled with us and Exeter. Williams seems to be going round the clubs in a different order but not risen yet. It will be interesting to see if Exeter can unlock his potential.

Bonkers report.... a bloke stood down from World rugby, arrested over fraud has been offered the Fiji head coach role?!?!

Sounds like he turned it down

Probably had to turn it down as he won't be allowed to leave the country whilst facing fraud charges.

Fijian Drura have terminated the contract of Vinaya Habosi.

I’d imagine he will end up in France… still would be a cracking signing in the prem if not France-bound.

He would come with baggage

Agreed, there would be baggage, but was there not with Genge to some degree, Nadolo had some issues when he was at Exeter (albeit a long time before he came to us), Wiese had a couple of big red cards when he played for the cheetahs I seem to remember.

I’m not saying we should jump for him, just saying with his talent he would be a good signing. Wouldn’t be the first young rugby player to have some issues - Manu in Auckland anyone?!

I believe he has signed a contract with Racing - but if the assault he is accused of leads them to change their mind, he is one hell of a player

L'equipe in France reporting Ribbans to Toulon is a done deal
