Transfers rumours

His Blues deal expires in the summer and Jenkins admitted: "I was only being offered say 60% of the money I was already on so and that had a big impact on me leaving."

I have it on pretty good links that what I mentioned is what he was offered and I am pretty sure that is what was reported in the media about it also.

Also keyword there is 'say'.

Don't think any Blues begrudges Jenkins leaving. He's been a wonderful servant to the club.
 
Pretty rude to say utter tosh then.
He says "say 60%" so maybe what 55% 60%...
Of course no one begrudges him. They simply don't have the money.

No because media outlets even said what I said, Jenkins was quoted something but the real deal he was offered was the same wage but not paid during International duty.
 
I should have said they were offering 60% of what he was currently being payed because thats obviously what i meant. Since Wales don't use central contracts the fact that they weren't going to pay him during international periods still counts as reducing his wage.
 
Duck, they have goo player coming through, but they are all 18-20.
Cymro, I like the looks of Downes and Jones, but they both need a bit more time before they are 1st team options. I never saw much of Fury as he played in the Prem, but I remember him being capped against SA and also as an unused replacement in the 2009 6N.

Thats exactly what I heard as well, you cant blame him for going especially when he is getting offered so much more to play in France.
 
Who in the professional divisions would be daft enough to sign him? :lol: (No menace intended Phil, yir jis nae gud enuff)

As for the clip, as soon as I saw the ***le I didn't bother, some things are best forgotten. <_<
 
Great news for Edinburgh ... Phil Godman has turned down a new contract and hopes to move to France

@Lord Hope: remember this????

whatever he does from now on he will always be best remembered for it, even though he got a drop goal to beat Racing Metro


My undying memory of Godman will always be him hobbling off the pitch at the Millennium Stadium with a bandage wrapped around the top of his head, a bloody nose and looking like a complete mug after being sent off for a blatant trip on Lee Byrne... ;)

Danielli to Pests and Annett and McKinney to Bristol are the latest rumoured Ulster departures.
I read that on the UAFC too.

Signing for Bristol could be a great move for both Annett and McKinney, especially if the club qualify for the Premiership. They're buried way down the depth chart at Ulster.

I also read on the UAFC that Ian Whitten will be announced as an Exeter Chiefs player in the next few days.
 
McKinney's a really good player in my opinion. I think he has the potential to win some international caps. He's not flashy but always puts his team in the right area- think Ronan O'Gara or Dan Parks in terms of style. I actualy prefer him to Paddy Jackson in terms of young Ulster flyhalves.
