    Future touring schedule:

    6. Last ever game (Mitsubishi Dynoboars)

    7. Last ever game (Brad Thorn like deal with the Ospreys)

    8. Last ever game (another Barbarians game vs the Lions in Hong Kong)

    I could realistically see that happening
    Agreed, is he not playing with Martyn Williams for the Asian Barbarians against Saracens in Hong Kong also?

    According to this link, Ceri Sweeney has signed for a Russian side Krasny Yar

    http://www.ihpu.canterburyrugby.co.n...ssia-with-love

    Along with Morland and Horton, Krasny Yar looks to have scored a massive coup by signing former Welsh No 10 Ceri Sweeney for the upcoming season, although the deal has not yet been finalised. Sweeney played 35 tests from 2003-07, including appearances at the ’03 and ’07 World Cups. However, he may now be relied upon more heavily at the Cardiff Blues after the club’s decision to sack Gavin Henson with immediate effect following his alcohol-fuelled misconduct on a recent flight from Glasgow to Cardiff.
    the Krasny Yar Wikipedia page also says they have signed Sinoti Sinoti from Aironi and Tom Riley from the Dragons

    but I couldn't find any other sources for that though

    Great signing for Bath, if true. Him and Biggs will be a great partnership, Nd will mean Banahan will be centre or nothing.
    Cockerill will be kicking himself if he does go there and really performs.

    In fairness, I think Cockerill would have liked to keep him. The amount of time active Rugby Championship players will be missing during the season for effectively put a kibosh on it though, and I'm slightly surprised Bath have taken up that same problem.

    I think tigers could easily have coped, if they really wanted to/tried. I know Cockers did want to keep hold, but they've got the cash and the depth to cover until he was back if they wanted.

    Possibly. The salary cap is a harsh mistress. He'll certainly be useful to have around when he is available.

    You act as if the tigers have a salary cap!
    I'm sure they'd suddenly discover he's a genius at tractors and CAT would get him a job, if they delved a bit deeper

    You think Banahan wouldn't start?

    I know he is rather rubbish, but he has a bigger reputation and is an international so I would be surprised if he didn't start for Bath.

    The Argentine players will be unavailable just as much as other international players though, and Leicester seem happy to keep Castro and Cole

    The Argentines will miss September, and be back for the second round of the Heineken Cup, and the rest of October and then unavailable for November (half of which are LV Cup matches missed) and then that's it

    they'll be there for the business end of the season, and miss just over two months of the British season, which is the same as any other international player playing in November and the Six Nations, so I think there's been more fuss made about it because it's a change, and coaches have previously got a good deal out of signing Argentines and them only missing November

    exactly, Leicester have an All Black (Scott Hamilton) in reserve, he's better than most teams reserve winger/full back, and also Matt Smith can cover, and I wonder whether Mathew Tait has any chance of recovering or whether he's headed to a sad injury enforced early retirement

    Leicester could have kept him (and indeed have retained Ayerza)

    pd - Props are important though, while wingers are bumfluff - although yes, their prop retention mystifies me. Besides, missing any HEC gametime is something of a no-no.

    Bristol's released list;

    Louis Silver (Doncaster Knights)
    Jason Harris-Wright (Connacht)
    Darren Barry
    Daniel Montagu
    Mark Irish
    Jake Caulfield
    Matty James (Nevers Rugby)
    Henry Vanderglas (Grenoble)
    Mark Davies
    Sean Marsden (Hartpury College)
    Darren Crompton (Hartpury College)
    Josh Ovens (returns to parent club)
    James Letherby
    Will Helu

    Very shocked that Dan Montagu has left, was a key part of our back row. He'd only recently signed a new deal but the club say it was a "squad progression decision after the playoffs".

    Edit: We have announced the signing of George Biagi from Aironi http://www.bristolrugby.co.uk/news/7...bristol-rugby/

    Gareth Delve has changed his mind on a pre contract he signed with Toulon, and will not play for them next season

    Toulon president Mourad Boudjellal is expected to ask for compensation, and was not happy about it, just like the tantrum (of which he has many) he had when Gorgodze did the same thing.

    So where's he going? I wonder if this has anything to do with being involved with the Wales setup over the last couple of weeks. Maybe he's impressed in training and the management have had a word about possibly returning to play for one of the Welsh regions. I'm hoping so, because all of the regions bar the Dragons could do with his quality at 8. The Blues still have Rush, but he's been far from his best last season, and have a couple of young players coming through (Hamilton looks good). The Ospreys have Stowers and Bearman, but Stowers in particular hasn't set the world alight. The Scarlets have lost Morgan, and only have Murphy really.

    Good signing for them doesn't say if he's a project player or not.
