Bath sign Stephen Donald.... Epic lulz.

Ahh brilliant!
They wanted Carter and got Donald. Kiwi's should be sending thank you cards to Meehan.

Turns out Camacho is off to Exeter, destroying my hopes that the rumours of his departure were false...

That said, great catch for the Chiefs.

Edward Siggery (Wales U20 flanker), Pontypridd -> London Irish

Wow ... Blues let one slip there.

 

[DuncTheDoodle]

Can't understand that. He's looked very good in what I've seen from the Under 20s and Welsh Prem, but, like Shingler, seems a random catch for Irish. He doesn't seem Premiership level yet, and will probably be on the bench for the A team instead of starting for Ponty, though I'm not sure how much strength in depth they have.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Was he playing blindside vs NZ?

Obviously not the best match the judge him off of, but his off the ball on the NZ player leading to his card was idiotic

 

[TRF_Cymro]

People will seem to judge him on one game and that will be the NZ game, if they however watch what he has done previously for Wales U20 and Ponty on TV then they would be quite shocked at why the Blues failed to pick him up.

Wasn't Siggery part of the Scarlets Academy as well?

Correct and played or Llanelli, Carmarthen Quins and Llandovery. He moved to Ponty because he was studying in Glam Uni. Still feel a treat has been missed a region.

 

[Draggs]

He would be behind Warburton, Pretorius, and probably Navidi. I've not seen too much of him; is he better openside or blindside?

Blindside but has played at 8.

Had he been at the Blues could easily been a player that would push Pretorius and would have been a nice addition. London Irish for me have a bargain of a youth player that could come good with the right amount of game time.
