Transfers rumours

[munstermuffin]

I saw that. It's a truly huge loss for Leinster rugby.

Big chunk of Leinster back line gone when you consider Reddan will struggle to hit peak again, Sexton gone, D'Arcy and BOD are on borrowed time, Fitzgearld is too prone and gone 7-8months, Nacewa gone. I don't care how good a coach you have or team spirit it's hard to cope with that

Apparently they're looking at JP Pietersen as a replacement.

Will be pretty interesting to see how Leinster go next season.

 

[profitius]

They should try to sign North.

 

[munstermuffin]

Thing is though Nacewa wasn't on massive money and I don't think IRFU will offer huge cash but Peterson is good but it all depends on how he blends in. How many heard Nacewa and knew he'd be as good as he was.

Whispers of AAC moving to an Irish team coming my way.

Yeah, heard it was Leinster as well.

I hope we don't get JP Pietersen, he wouldn't know any of our players apart from Lionel Beauxis.

It appears some or all of Luke Burgess, Lionel Beauxis, Sylvain Nicolas, Yves Donguy and Gary Botha may leave Toulouse due to a budget deficit: http://www.rugby-transferts.com/top-14/toulouse/0019951-stade-toulousain-cinq-joueurs-liberes.html

Luke Burgess ---> Rebels

 

[TRF_Olyy]

I saw Richard Hill has been let go by Sarries.
Apparently he was superb working with their academy - anyone heard any whispers about where he's going?
Wonder if he'll continue academy work (or maybe England age-grade?) or try his hand senior rugby coaching.

To be honest I do not think it is anything to do with cash....they need to refresh their squad and bring some fresh blood in. The guys leaving, and they will, have not performed, along with a few others, this season! This is cut throat rugby Top 14 style!!!!

Anyone picked up on Andrew Trimble to Stade Francais rumours?
EDIT:Sorry just saw Tony posted about it ages ago, I'm very slow on the uptake. Anyone heard any Munster transfer rumors?

 

[munstermuffin]

He has since signed new deal with Ulster on a central contract so his agent must be superb. Munster linked with few but nobody solid.

Listening to Newstalk this morning they said that Munster are interested in signing Luke Fitzgerald in the summer. Not sure where it came from but I'm not sure it would be a good fit for either the team or the player.

Goes around every summer due to Luke having strong roots here but don't think it ever serious and while there is some chatter between parties I think Luke will stay by Leinster and they are willing to stick by him

Big Big rumours that a deal for Luke Fitz and Luke McGrath to Munster

 

[big ginger 8]

Strong rumours but not very substantiated.

Oh my gods the internet would go into meltdown. Amazing.

Would make zero sense though.
