Worth keeping an eye on perhaps. I hope we see him back in the Prem.

Don't think we want Worth back in a Tigers shirt, thanks HC! :smt002

Probably not but it's easier to keep an eye on him now he's playing for Ampthill.

Well that is confusing there is no George Worth on the Ampthill players listing but our dear ex D'Artagnan Tiger Tom Hardwick is at flyhalf ~ All for one and all for Tom! Our George Worth is still with Melbourne Rebels according to Wickie.
I feel sure Melbourne is a far better place than Ampthill, even though some search engines say he is.

He was named in the Ampthill team as recently as April, alongside Hardwick.

Julien Dupuy (Tigers' scrum half 2008/2009, 8 caps for France 2009/2012) has been appointed backs coach of ProD2 Provence Rugby next season, where he'll be with two ex Tigers, Peter Betham and Jonny McPhilips.

George Worth signed for French 3rd tier Valence Romans a month or so back. I presume the "old boys network" (Beckett/Hudson) saw him briefly at Ampthill.

Valence Romans finished 2nd in the "Nationale" league (3rd tier, as Hot Charlie correctly writes) and have a home and away semifinal against Albi(3rd) and a possible final against Dax(1st) or Blagnac(4th) to decide which team will be promoted to ProD2.
No easy matches!
Valence is in the Rhone valley between Lyon and Avignon, and must be a nice place to live and play rugby!

Graham Rowntree's Munster best Leinster by a late drop goal to advance to the URC final Vs the Stormers.

Great result for him and the Munster Men.

Have just watched Kevin Sinfield carry Rob Burrow over the line at the marathon. So moving.

Indeed a beautiful part of the world.

Back to the "old boys" thing, the previously mentioned Charlie Beckett made his debut for Eastwood in Sydney today. I believe it's a short term deal over the summer.
