Re: Transfers & Rumours Non Tigers 2016/17
Does anyone think Kruis might feel threatened at Saracens and could move? He’s got Isiekwe, Itoje and now possibly Kpoku in his way. No wonder Brian Tuilagi moved he had no chance!

Not for me,Kruis is still a very good player and Krutoje is still there best partnerships. Iseikwe can play 6 too.

No but we had to play Brown on the wing because Jones didn’t rate the other options.JP14 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 3:42 pmFinishing wasn’t a problem on tour.Leicestertinytiger wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 10:34 amFrom an England point of view I’m really happy to have Ashton back.

Strange that Daly played on the wing in the 6N and seemed to play significantly well enough to then get pushed to fullback for the SA tour.

You know perfectly well what I mean Ellis!

Adriaan Strauss will hang up his boots at the end of the season, a great player for both the Boks and the Bulls.

Imagine the uproar if we signed cashton, he wouldn’t be cheap and people would be fuming that sort of wedge was spent on a winger and not the forwards.sam16111986 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 7:04 pmAnd a pack that can scrummage.ellis9 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 6:03 pmYoungsRugbyflanker wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 10:24 am Ashton to Sale a done deal apparently,to be wrapped up next week.

Happy for England that he’s coming back to the premiership. However, we have Holmes who looks class at premiership level with a great finishing record.

Re: Transfers & Rumours Non Tigers 2016/17
May is a great finisher, TV can score from anywhere, Thompstone has ever been the reliable option for us, Owolofela looks like a great prospect, Aspland-Robinson I don't enough about but there's options on the wings there, more than enough to serve our needs next season.Leicestertinytiger wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 7:26 pmImagine the uproar if we signed cashton, he wouldn’t be cheap and people would be fuming that sort of wedge was spent on a winger and not the forwards.

If we've got cash to splash than I'd prefer additions to the front five, particularly prop.
Re: Transfers & Rumours Non Tigers 2016/17
No I don't. You'll have to enlighten me. Our backline looks one of the best in the league.
