Cheering on the Tigers in Detroit.
Previously a slower, shorter, less good looking version of Tom Croft.

Wonder if it went with the usual drama that we used to have when it came to Manu contract renewal time?

We don’t miss him at all in my opinion.

I have to agree. He is now playing on reputation, and is used primarily as a crash ball merchant. Discipline is an issue too along with fitness

I get the impression that Sale were a bit firmer than we used to be. Put an offer on the table and said that was it. We then had all the usual headlines of various clubs offering Manu the big deals that never materialised and he signed the Sale offer. Sort of get the feeling that the queue of people wanting to sign him were simply not there this time. Cannot see why he stayed otherwise as it is clear that the World Cup will be his last England games. Hell, we did not even get photos of him at another club's training ground.

He’s nowhere near the player that he was as losing a few kilos to aid his injury problems has affected his effectiveness.

Dan Lydiate has announced he has played his last game for Ospreys. At 34 and with his injury history can’t really see anyone taking a punt on him.

Sure I read somewhere that Bristol were signing him might be wrong though

Just googled that and nothing came up.
He’s a farmer so maybe going full time

Gareth Anscombe and Dan Lydiate have confirmed their time at the Ospreys has come to an end.

Anscombe could be a decent pick up for someone. He’s only 31 so 3 or 4 years left yet.
