    Transfers rumours

    Well that is agent talk as: 1. Leinster won't get sanctioned for a New THP. 2. They 100% won't get sanctioned for a large contract for a back up player.

    Yes but there is alot to it regards insurance etc too. Also wasn't aware that it can lower salary cap declarations. But it is valid. Why should RFU pay for releases of others don't.

    But see Bath are paying his wages and use the extra number for preparation of future games. That is why Bath and other premiership clubs bring them back. If Russell got injured on that rest week with SRU it is Bath who are technically liable. @retired9 that is the way it starts but eventually...

    Don't get me wrong I'm more a critic of Gregor as I do believe the talent is there. More so this is some of the best talent Scotland have had in years. The big issue is players like Russell in England being brought back to clubs in down weeks. But I do think a 3rd team would help hugely with the...

    There was talk of a Borders revival but that seems to have gone quiet. Like there is no development region which is needed. Like Connacht started as a development but now as they have grown they are more complete. I think the Dragons are on similar path too

    No but it is about rebuilding again. Like not the same pressure as pre RWC winning a series in NZ. Player development more key

    Not really as Scotland weren't really relevant before last few years.

    This was my views for last few months as I have said. Great pool yet seem happy to settle for a 4th or so and nearly so

    Keenan out. Larmour starts at 15 Crowley a big doubt. Ross Byrne out there too

    For Munster let's not forget Gleeson was a loss too

    Depends on balance like when Ferris played 6 he had less destruction so his attributes were needed then. And I hate the mention of Ferris name as @Leonormous Boozer mentioned best ever 6 for Ireland. (That debate for another day) but Ferris could have easily had that if he stayed fit. I think...

    A mixture of contract breakdown and effectively what the body can do and the wage wanted not matching. The body has hit toll that championship.

    Peter O Mahony might announce retirement today.

    Congrats England on the outright tournament win. Must say I really enjoyed this whole tournament as a whole. Great games

    Not arguing he left them in bad way just bot a coach that gets them that final bit. Like to the extent Glasgow were never pushing the business end of Europe and Scotland I just feel aren't able to go that bit more. For example Scotland this year could finish either very good and be 2nd or go as...

    Correct. A few symptoms may be telling signs but no definitive way as the brain has to effectively have a biopsy to confirm

    The thing ye are all missing. Calvin didn't loose consciousness. He was groggy and rattled. He also passed his HIA but was not in right senses. He was back training Tuesday fully and waltzed past all the independently done tests. If it is a concussion like Frawley for example there is a way to...

    But I'd argue on the opposite he has got a bounce off his teams when he goes in for first season or 2 but after that it goes stale fast and progress stalls or regresses. They beat us in Pro12 final but we were in a poor spot and still the only real difference was the 2 Fijian lads. I think...
