Transfers rumours

[Bluemoon]

Hearing Ross Moriarty going to Scarlets next season from Gloucester anybody else heard if is true

They are missing a big number 8, but then they have a lot of depth in their back row at the moment.

Quins have been linked with lots of players but we very rarely land big signings. I think there is pretty much zero chance of Fekitoa coming to the Stoop.

I agree with you re. Marchant though. He is looking better and better and is undoubtedly the future for the Quins 13 shirt. 12 is where we need to invest. Roberts has been an expensive flop and the sooner we lose him the better IMO.

Surely Wasps fans knew what they were getting with Cipriani? He is the living, breathing definition of mercurial. Yes, he is capable of both the sublime and the ridiculous, but I'd say he's played more good games than he has poor ones in a Wasps shirt.

It's not like there is an abundance of top-class 10s available at the moment, so I wouldn't be in rush to say goodbye to Cipriani if I were a Wasps fan.

I'd happily have him at Quins and we'll take Eastmond and Miller too if you don't really want them.

Very true...... just me having a rant I wasn't to excited when I knew he was coming back tbh........

Hands of miller but Eastmond is yours for Marler and Sinckler.........

 

[Midlander]

MARLER. Bloody auto correct

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Geoff Parling ---> Leicester Tigers

 

[saintmaster]

Geoff Parling ---> Leicester Tigers

I've seen that Parling is on the move but back to Leicester?

 

[ratsapprentice]

Was that in TRP?

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Was that in TRP?

Nope they say Melbourne.

 

[ratsapprentice]

James O'Connor --> Worcester?

 

[ALJ]

Johan Ackermann linked with head coach role at Gloucester.

I know he's not a player but it's still a transfer rumour, right?
(Unless I am the last one to hear about this, which is pretty common).

 

[Jrex]

Geoff Parling ---> Leicester Tigers

I don't believe it!
Is he still even playing at Exeter?

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Yeh he was man of the match v Leicester the other Friday.

Am I right in remembering him *****ing about the Leicester way of playing & training after he left? Or am I thinking of Waldrom?

 

[Which Tyler]

Nathan Charles Clermont => Bath
Injury cover until the end of the season.

Australian hooker; apparently the only professional rugby players with Cystic Fibrosis - so huge respect for that; and a far better replacement than we could have realistically expected at this stage of the season (Walker, Dunn and VanVuuren all injured in the last month or so; and all out for the rest of the season)

Chris Brooker has also come in from Bristol; but is cup-tied in Europe.

Waldrom.

Parling did fall out with Cockerill though.

 

[Jrex]

Plisson to Saints

J Gray to Toulouse?

Waldrom.

Parling did fall out with Cockerill though.

There a point in asking what happened or is it just a given?

 

[BPM]

I also saw th Plisson to Saints rumour. I'm not seeing an immediately obvious fit there, but Plisson is a good young 10, so they could definitely do worse.

Arguably a better 10 than Madigan (not necessarily a better player though).

Not sure he wants a reunion with Courtney Lawes though

 

[munstermuffin]

Dave Foley to Pau rumoured.

Dan Leavy deal to us rumoured to be pending on Van Der Flier deal.

Also a real spanner is if Leavy deal collapses Hooper to us on a 1 year deal is rumoured. Don't believe it though as other 2 I've heard from working inside camp. Hooper rumour has come from outside camp

 

[JJFlash]

Dave Foley to Pau rumoured.

.

Isn't Pau a retirement home for ageing Irish rugbymen?
There's been Coughlan, Butler and Dougall - they're Irish aren't they?
Srsly, good luck to the bloke. Pau are on the up and could be playing top flight European rugby next season.

All Munster men. Sure coach is Mannix. Knows all boys from his time here. And those boys certainly didn't go to retire. Coughlan was superb for us and is going just as good over. Paddy Butler has massively improved over there. And we were sorry to loose Dougall. Although there is rumour he may return to Ulster

Pau have surprised a few people over here this season - me included, and recorded a fine win away at Toulouse only a few weeks back, so yer man Foley could do well for himself.
