They're going to have to find a big chunk of change for Big Andre as Quins won't let him out of contract for nowt. Sharks could potentially see if Quins wanted a trade of some sort which might help with the fee.

The Sharks are part owned by an American investment company, I think Roc Nation is included in there somewhere.

Re: Transfers & Rumours Non-Tigers 2022
Could Zach Mercer be heading back to France? Rumours over here say yes. Should he go or should he stay? Borthers doesn’t want him and Glaws aren’t going to win a major trophy so let’s not be surprised if a Top14 club tries to buy him out of his contract.

Re: Transfers & Rumours Non-Tigers 2022
Good move for all concerned. An England call up looks unlikely, not exactly tearing up tress with Glaws. Perhaps all parties cutting their losses and him going back to France is the way forward.Robespierre wrote: ↑Mon Feb 19, 2024 11:46 am Could Zach Mercer be heading back to France?

There is a certain club in the East Midlands that is needing a dynamic No.8 for next season...

Re: Transfers & Rumours Non-Tigers 2022
I doubt Glaws would allow him to leave for free and Mercer would stick here in England if he were to leave Glaws. Either New Zealand (where he'd be eligible to switch nationality for the ABs) or back to France where Top14 clubs would be queuing up to offer him serious cash.Wayne Richardson Fan Club wrote: ↑Mon Feb 19, 2024 12:26 pm There is a certain club in the East Midlands that is needing a dynamic No.8 for next season...

I'd bite your hand off for him,those who watched a lot of Top14 and don't just take an opinion off 40 minutes of rugby know how good a player he can be.

I too, would be delighted if he were to play for Tigers, but I believe that his contract at Gloucester has another couple of seasons to run.Scott1 wrote: ↑Tue Feb 20, 2024 8:27 amI'd bite your hand off for him,those who watched a lot of Top14 and don't just take an opinion off 40 minutes of rugby know how good a player he can be.

Yes Gloucester would want compensation for his remaining contract if he moved onRobespierre wrote: ↑Tue Feb 20, 2024 9:07 amI too, would be delighted if he were to play for Tigers, but I believe that his contract at Gloucester has another couple of seasons to run.Scott1 wrote: ↑Tue Feb 20, 2024 8:27 amI'd bite your hand off for him,those who watched a lot of Top14 and don't just take an opinion off 40 minutes of rugby know how good a player he can be.
