Transfers rumours

If Manu went to sarries he knows he would be rotated, where as at tigers they bring him back to early and then he spends his life injured. I know that is partly England's fault but sarries rest, rotate more than any Premiership club I've seen.

Should go to saints and perfect his ability to be a thug.

He could be the thug master.

:p

Reason they rotate more than anyone else........they cheat by flaunting the salary cap allegedly!!!
 
We do need a carrying presence in the backline but Tuilagi wont come to us. If he were to become available then he would be in a Toulon shirt the next day, they would do anything to get him.
 
Why would Manu go to Sarries?
He's clearly first choice at his club, a full strength Tigers is as likely to win silverware as Sarries, he's probably on mega wedge and he can't be a marquee signing so anything Sarries can offer it's reasonable to assume that Tigers can offer similar.

Varndell I could see, if he has a get out clause and one/both of Strettle/Ashton is France bound

Do you really believe that? Because I don't.

If Tuilagi wants silverware and wants to play for England, Saracens is the logical destination.

Meh they have won 2 trophies in 6 years is it ? Hardly Toulonesque . Leicester have struggled with injuries all season I wouldn't be surprised to see them come back stronger next year as long as we can get our best players fit for the first time in 2 bleeding seasons lol

Also Manu is my favourite rugby player and if he moved to Sarries I'd be forced to hate him like all the other Sarries players (except Itoje) in which case that could be a difficult transition for me lol

He would be brilliant if he was in his Blues form but not in his Montpellier form, I would still take him on though.
maybe a move to sarries would bring back that form let's face it with all the problems they've had in France this year the structure at sarries might help him would be worth a go!
 
Mick D'arcy rumoured to be coming to us in Munster. Heard today but was in doing some recovery work with some guys and heard nothing but well he's a good AIL player but don't know if he would be much more.
