Also confirms that he'll take full responsibility for the coaching and playing side, solving the bugger's muddle of Hooper's role

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

So what is Hoopers role then?

Also is Hatley gone?

DoR - uninvolved in the day to day - AKA what it always should have been (assuming any role for him)
Not yet

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Genge confirmed off.

This season is like a damn monkeys claw.

also to Bristol

 

[Mr Burns]

Presume it's for more money and to move back home as Bristol are fairly mediocre right now.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

I mean Genge has always been open about money

And about going back to Bristol too in fairness.

There were Sarries rumours but expect it to be Bristol. Perhaps Sinks to Sarries to replace Koch? I'm struggling to see how Bris work with the cap reducing now

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

I hope when Borthwick becomes England head coach he never picks Genge and Ford, or picks them all the time IDK

I know it was always on the cards at some point, but I'm still a little surprised - thought he'd stay at Tigers or if he did go it would be to Saracens

I don't think the move will workout, tbh - he's been pretty open with how he needed to get away from Bristol because of the off field distractions. Whilst he has matured a lot recently, he's still a young lad

Bristol going to be hoping they don't come up against any strong packs during international periods

He's almost 27 tbf, if he can't control himself at this age he needs a proper head check

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Hopefully it goes as well as sinckler move to Bristol did for Harlequins.

Sometime I forget Sinckler played for quins and at the time I thought him leaving would be a killer blow for them

I mean isn't it a bit silly having the England 1 and 3 in your pack? I mean there's a lot of the year when you lose them and therefore you'll need quite good back ups.

Which you then have to pay for.
Without a marquee slot available

Yeah I just don't get it. You could really do with 1 England international and one top quality saffer or someone just below international standard who's around all year.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

There's a reason why it hasn't worked before unless you break the cap.

Or like Bristol, anyone other than your first team is bin juice and you pray to Jesus Mary and Joseph that you don't get any injuries

"So Ellis mate what do you think about pretending to be injured so we don't have to scrum"

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

NGL the actually announcement video annoys me more than the move.

Like **** me ellis your still our captain it isn't great seeing going around shaking hands with everyone etc.

Also no masks and handshakes reporting them
