Chessum will have to work to get in with them

All 3 could potentially be involved in 2024's 6Ns...
It isn’t out of the question that all 3 could be involved in this years RWC

Arguably been the premiership player of the month for March. Looks fit and still hungry for it, and with Watson likely off and Steward away for getting on for 6 months next season a good piece of business

Only disappointment with the OHC is it probably means no more re-signings today, so may have to wait for extensions for the likes of West till the next batch...

That’s what I wondered too, if we’ve moved onto ‘joining the journey’ announcements, is that all renewals for today. I see West as a key bit of retention, hopefully it happens.
Wonder if there some more under the radar incomings to be announced today? OHC was the only name being suggested wasn’t he?

Could also be it for today?
Usually they do them at 30 mins if it's a large batch.

Be good if Chessum is, but it might be a push, Henderson will need some injuries to make the Scotland squad.
To win is not as important as playing with style!

Quite possibly, maybe one or max. 2 left IMO.

Worth pointing out to those concerned re. West and other extensions. 100% there will be another announcement closer to the end of the season in May time. We still need to announce academy graduates etc so another chance for him and others will come!

That’s pretty much all of the rumoured new signings for next season. Are there any genuine ones that we know of?

I know we aren’t expecting any and it depends largely on leavers, but I can’t see many more being added.

Biggest ones will be new coaches to the team. Any rumours on that front too?

With it rumoured both Leatigaga & Van Wyk plus West only ever short term, I'd suggest either a few more extensions at prop or new signings there...

I think we could still do with one more centre / winger. We always seem to have injuries there... Moroni anyone?! haha - would be nice.

A powerful islander would not go amiss!
