Transfers rumours

[AFalcon20]

The rugby paper had the Tait rumour in aswell would not be surprised if he did leave the Tigers.

 

[gaston le gaff]

Replacement for Speeding!!!!

 

[Tony Manx]

I can well see Spedding leaving Bayonne (who never seem to be able to keep their Internationals) but maybe you just know a little more about where he might be going?!!!

 

[AFalcon20]

Rugby Paper has us Falcons linked with Australian Berrick Barnes.

Rugby Paper has us Falcons linked with Australian Berrick Barnes.

That would be an excellent signing!

 

[ratsapprentice]

Isn't Barnes basically semi-retired due to concussion?
Playing in Japan for his retirement fund.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Alesana went to Japan to retire but ended up back at Newcastle - maybe there's a great sushi place near Kingston Park?

 

[ratsapprentice]

The difference being that Alesana wasn't forced to move due to repeated concussions.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Apparently Tigers are interested in Francois Hougaard were being linked to loads ATM.

 

[AFalcon20]

I think it's that time of the year where alot of players are linked with different clubs.

 

[Patchey]

A guy with concussion issues does NOT want to be playing on a 4G pitch.

 

[TheSaffycen]

Love Barnes as a player but why would he want to come to England ? His intl' ambitions are still not going to be realised and he gets more money in Japan. Maybe if it was Saints/Saracens then maybe silverware might be a factor but a smaller team seems like a lose lose for him.

 

[saryboy86]

The way saracens are playing this year no chance of any trophies! Any players linked with us??? God knows we need some clear out some of the players we have right now

 

[TheSaffycen]

Well yeah this year has started poorly. Haven't heard anything coming in but a world class OC and winger and we would be a different outfit. Heard that Joubert and De Kock was going to leave at the end of last year, hopefully they do as they probably aren't worth their current wage.

 

[saryboy86]

Indeed we do need a world class OC your right but Rhys gill needs to go never rated him just gives penalties and gets binned! Also we need another 10 for cover as Charlie is 34 now so no spring chicken but still a good player also a hooker to replace Brits 15 as well there's a few areas that need improving!

Rene ranger and george burgess would be my two main targets!

 

[TheSaffycen]

I want us too use the youngsters more. Spencer/Itoje/Ransom and Tompkins should all be playing more this year. Goode might be worth convertingto 10, if not then look at Cips ?

 

[saryboy86]

Yea those guys definitely and Earle when he's fit and I think Goode would make a better 10 in my opinion! But ranger would be a great 13,11, or 14 and george burgess would make a great 6/8 but a world class back or two is a must I think

 

[Ready23]

Ah yes the salary cap is N/A to Sarries

 

[Big Ewis]

I've stopped posting on this thread for a while, because if you knew all the rumors (that are quite probable, not just hot air) I read for Toulon every day almost....this is getting ridiculous tbh...it wasn't this bad the past few years.

 

[saryboy86]

Ah yes the salary cap is N/A to Sarries

Ah yes another with no proof just another rumor
