Transfers rumours

Requested by Prendergast too which is to be applauded.

If he starts smoking rollies, learning 3 cords on the guitar and drinking Bucky while creating sh noises in random words it's over for Leinster though.
 
Neinaber saying Prendo to Connacht on loan is in the works. Shrewd and works for all I believe.
It makes or breaks Prendergast you'd feel. He knows he won't get consistent minutes next year in Dublin but flip side is Leinster are not strong at 10.
It'd be interesting if Prendergast plays brilliantly forcing way in to Irish camp

Leinster aren't strong at 10 but have a few key cogs to the Irish system (for now) so game time needs to be shared. The Byrnes have to be fighting for one contract next year however, otherwise I might change sport til they retire.

The key to the Byrnes is the revenue the bring in. Not a dig at Leinster either but it a fact. If Crowley is starting 10 and Prendergast uses his platform to cement backup spot then it a funny call.
He will want to stay where he is unless he comes back as a starter. And is Harry not contracted until 2026?
Is an interesting scenario.

The Cityjet Leinster arrangement is over. They flew Ryanair to London which would make no sense when Cityjet fly direct to City Airport and cityjeys blurb about it on their site is past tense. The Byrnes have contracts because, Crowley aside, they're as good as anyone in the country in their positions. I expect one of them to be on their last contracts although I've heard rumours re Prendo that worry me about his attitude so who knows.

They still got a decent donation this year. It is listed. Similar to Munster we get Shannon Airport as sponsor but sometimes still fly from Dublin or Cork. Regardless the comments were tounge in cheek. But regards Prendergast you say attitude poor potentially which was my point. I don't know young fella or about his attitude more if he goes and establishes himself then 25/26 could see multiple lads expect to be starting 10 and could be messy like if the player whi doesn't get what they want kicks a fuss

Fissler reckons Ackermann has signed for Yokohama, despite only signing an extension at Gloucester at few months ago
That'd be a big blow for them - he's been one of the few consistently good players in their side, even at their worst


He also reckons a Prem DoR is going to get sacked over the summer after a club head honcho got drunk at the Prem rugby awards and told their table - guessing that would be Skivington?
Doubt anyone else's necks are on the block - Lam had a big late season boost, maybe Tigers?

That rumour sounds more like gossip than concrete, though, tbf

That sounds like something out of a tv soap
 
I mean Skirvington started off so well but Gloucester have been so poor. He's either got a plan to fix it with the players he's got now (as they haven't really made many signings) or we are in for another season of poor Gloucester.

I'd guess that his head could be on the block. What can he do to fix their issues?

Tomas Williams is a class signing. Anscombe potentially great too, if he stays fit.

For a team that finished with only 5 wins, they need more than just two average players to change things around. Their pack needs to perform or be replaced.
 
They need some big units in the pack, losing Ackermann would exacerbate that massively as he's the only guy they've got with some bite about him
 
Would be an interesting one. Maybe he's looking for a two year retirement contract with less minutes than France so could be available for relatively cheap.
 
Just need to get it past David Humphreys and Nucifora who have openly said there will be no front row signings across the nation????
