Certainly can be done with 1 or 2 smart signings

And keeping hold of Nel.

 

[Which Tyler]

Nope, we want him at Bath

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Nope, we want him at Bath

You also wanted to keep hold of ford jr

 

[Which Tyler]

We did, though I'm more sanguine now I know we're getting Freddie in return.
A step down in top quality, whilst still being international class; but available all season.

No idea if we're actually looking at Nel, or if it's my wishful thinking being reposted, picked up, and turned into rumour

Ehhh... I wonder just how many coaches said no!

More high profile than your most recent head coach appointment pal. He's a perfect fit as he was Chiefs attack coach who play the nearest thing to Connacht's style imaginable. They weren't gonna do better

Higher profile than Stuart Lancaster? I don't think so... Chiefs weren't exactly great in his year there either, he did ok with Tasman but has no head coach experience as far as I can tell!

Schmidt hadn't much head coach experience when he came

 

[RedruthRFC]

Cory Allen (Cardiff Blues) --------> Ospreys

Josh Matavesi (Ospreys) --------> Newcastle

Josh's brother Joel is joining him at Newcastle from Redruth. Either he's a condition of Josh signing, or the see him as a project, he looked pretty average playing fly half at level 4 on Saturday and needs to sort out his conditioning. Big ol' boy for an outside though.
