Normally if there's a raft of them we get some form of 'popcorn' teaser. Did I miss that today?
I took it as being 3, as there were 3 signing emojis

Joe Taufeteʻe was unbelievable for Worcester before he went to Lyon (I think), could be an outstanding pickup

Suspect Cowan-Dickie will go back to Cornish Pirates after the AI's.
Also Dolly might be out for a while, Vanes is still pretty untested.

Means Vanes can spend a full season at Notts getting experience. I agree the TCD. Be interesting to see if the Aussie hooker rumoured to be joining comes in as well.

Shelley described as an outside back, does that mean he plays full back too or is he just a winger?

From the clips I've seen he's predominantly been a fullback but could slot in at wing if needed.

Full back seems to be his main position.
EQP so that's handy.

Outside back tends to mean fullback and winger
