Not on Twitter or facebook, so this may sound daft but who is Sam Williamson?
There is never any points for 2nd place...

Nadolo looks angry in nearly all the images I have seen of him since being in Leicester. The weather may have something to do with it.

Great piece of news. Not an extension, but I'd guess we've got him for another two seasons. To me, this is as good as a new signing and is a massive statement of intent from Taufua and the club.

Huge news re Taufua, he Brink and Liebenberg potentially are the best back tow in the premiership, and gives the groundings for the younger lads to break through.

I do feel we need another senior lock though even just for the remainder of this season and next.

It's almost certainly the most powerful!

Yes and I do understand that 7 is probably not his best position, but you have to try and get your best players on the park at the same time.
