Transfers rumours

Me....an?

Question Mark What GIF by MOODMAN
 
TRP rumours
Richard Barrington looking to go to France
Hidalgo-Clyne looking to go to France
Wasps looking for a starting 10 and a 15 along with a 13
Toulouse favourites to sign LdJ from Sale
Lyon want RJVR
Manu signed a contract extension
RFU got in touch with Tyrone Green about his ancestry
Steve Diamond looking to raid Sale
- Cameron Neild is his first name he wants (Makes sense IMO he's only a squad player for Sale really)
- Akker Van Der Merve (Makes sense given his brother and Sale have good cover alright pretty much would save cap)
- Dan and JL du Preez (Lol yeh I don't see this happening unless he signs Rob as well)
 
I would rate Atkinson higher than Umunga but really can't see them wanting a starting 10 unless one of their young ones is off.

Where are Worcester getting all this money/cap space from? Neild and Akker make sense and neither will be mega money. The du Preez twins are another matter. I'd assume their marquee(s) are already Duhan and Sutherland?
 
Perhaps - but not to the extent that they can bank roll that kind of shopping spree.

Realistically, they have to pay over the odds to attract people so you have to factor that in too.

Also it's realistic to expect a clear out after a change in management.

Maybe - they did just have a massive clear out though so a lot might depend on who is out of contract.
 
Neild will be cheap,
Imagine Akker will take a pay cut wherever he goes, his stock has dropped the last few seasons - might be happy to do that to play alongside his brother

Can't see the twins signing for Worcester - they're big fans of Dimes but if they leave us I reckon it'll be to South Africa or France
 
Really Worcester need front row and locks. Neither Du Preez twin wants to play lock long term.
Exactly my thoughts, we're too light at TH and locks. Just don't know what quality we can pick up. Ashton and Bresler going will have freed up a bit of room, hoping Searle and Miller go as they are not prem standard. Nanai we've not really got our moneys worth out of mainly due to injury. Realistically need a second overhaul. I get the feeling there'll be a couple of Championship signings, after that, not a clue
 
The Wasps rumour is interesting... with Gopps off and from most understanding, Minozzi likely to be in his last year of contract so maybe thats why we are on the hunt.

Atkinson/Umaga will cover 10 with Umaga/Crossdale doubling up at 15. Depends also what happens with Marcus Watson too who is more a wing than fullback.
