Transfers rumours

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Parling ----> Exeter.

If that happens Parling must feel he will be in the England camp after the RWC, and IMO Tigers have offered a reduced wage (Or not as high as Chiefs) Guess we will be looking towards Kitchener and Slater as starters.

Wouldn't surpise me. Also wouldn't surpise me if we bring in Albacete.

We are already "Confirmed" to have signed Mike Williams from Wuss as a potential Deacon replacement.

This is a rumour Tom Homer to Bath. Don't want him to leave especially to Bath but Booth has probably brainwashed him

 

[ratsapprentice]

His brother is in our Academy and he's from Salisbury, I've been thinking we might go for him for a while.
Would be much happier with him than Priestland.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Why would they, though?
Other than as cover during internationals if they think Watson's going to be away?

Don't get me wrong, he's a decent player but his only real top class ability is his goal kicking - everything else is pretty meh. Not really of the callibre of signing Bath are making recently, especially as they already have Watson and Arscott.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Arscott is only on a one year contract and I cannot see that being extended unless we don't manage to sign a specialist FB.

We've picked Agulla ahead of him recently.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Maybe Agulla is going to Argentina?

 

[j'nuh]

Agulla could be moving back to Argentina to take up a place in the new Argentina team, which would mean Watson would need to cover wing more?

Or maybe Henson is moving on?

 

[ratsapprentice]

Could be any number of things.

We are going to need a FB though.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

All makes sense, I guess.
I just would've thought they'd look at someone better than Homer - though maybe with all these salary cap accusations flying around they want to keep their signings a bit more low key.

INb4 Bath linked with the likes of Paul Doran jones.

 

[Patchey]

If Aguila wants to keep playing for the Pumas he'll have to go to Super Rugby so I guess that frees up a spot? Bit of an odd one as Homer will probably get a lot more game time at Irish. Would be a solid signing but Bath don't really need a kicking full back do they?

On second thoughts, Homer can come to Quins to take our long and wide kicks instead then. I'm cool with that.

 

[AFalcon20]

I wonder where Opeti Fonua will go if Welsh go down what's looking likely, I thought he was signing for Leicester before he moved to Welsh ?.

From what I heard if Bayonne had gotten relegated last season he would of moved to Leicester as he had a release clause.

Apparently Leicester are still very much interested.

 

[Irishkid]

Homer can be a very good runner with the ball but his constant injuries don't help but to be honest I think fenby could be a better full back.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Does anyone here actually sub to the rugby paper?

 

[ratsapprentice]

Charlie Walker: Quins --> Exeter

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Losing him, for the sake of Yarde, would be a travesty.

Could well happen, though, as James had signed for Cardiff and Vainikolo will be out of contract this season.

 

[Patchey]

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if that happened. Madness though tbh, with Monye ageing and Yarde presumably going to spend a lot of time with England. A bit of rotation and we keep an potential international standard winger with us, not gift him to Exeter...

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

David Sisi -----> Wuss

 

[j'nuh]

Well... provided Yarde doesn't get back to his best. If he does, then Quins have a great winger.

Are there any teams other than Bath being linked with their next season's second marquee players?
