O'Choke and Donald. There's an inspiring choice of 10s. Maybe they can get Ellis to come out of retirement to compliment TOL and complete the set.

Doubt donald would want to play in Thomond remember his last day out 
Can 100% say Donald isn't coming here. Ian Keatley is signed already to cover 10. So we aren't in for Donald

John Golding and Joe Ward --> Sale
15 Sale players could be on their way out at the end of the season too (including Hodgson and Tait who have been confirmed)

There have been talks for some while now that both Matfield and Bakkies might join Toulon after the 2011 RWC.There were also rumors last week that the Lions in SA are looking for Botha's services.Will be interesting to see what Bakkies decides.

Brock James is being linked with Bath. He'd be an excellent signing. While prone to the odd nightmare game, he's generally a brilliant kicker, is very physical, attacks his opposite number regularly and passes very well.

RE: Sale. Any word on who is being shown the door? As far as I remember, Brewer cleared out a lot of players last season too.
19 players are out of Contract,
So far one has confirmed to be staying (Sheridan) and 2 definitely leaving (Hodgson and Tait)
Steve Diamond said he wants to start again - basically.
Chuck the players who aren't performing and keep the ones that are. To be fair, the only players who should stick around in that case are Carl Fearns, Ben Cohen, Paul Williams and a couple of the academy lads (Tom Brady, Lee Imiolek and Henry Thomas)
Karena Wihongi will be off (to Lyon apparently) - He ended up at us by accident anyhow, he was supposed to go to one of Toulon/Toulouse but they turned him down at the last minute because he failed a medical check (congenital heart defect or something)
Paul Williams could walk onto most teams around, imo, so he'll move on (either back to the SH or to France)
Cohen I think they should retain - seems to be the only player that gives a f**k about these days
Of the others out of contract Chris Bell could be worth a shout - solid, but not amazing
Rhys Crane looks good, as a back up to Brady/Cueto/Cohen
Will Cliff - as backup/competition for Peel
Carl Fearns - because he's great
Fearns will move on though, I feel
He also seemed to take a dislike to Brewer, and seems to have made his mind up then - I think he'll have his mind on an England spot as well, and moving to a stronger club will strengthen those chances
Basically we're screwed, and will be lucky to last next season unless we bring in some real talent (and Tony Buckley does not fit that bill :lol: )

Well at least he can work on his tan while sitting in their sin bin
Amazing turn around at Sale, considering where they were a few seasons ago after winning the league and now seeming like relegation contenders.
I know, totally stealing our act
But did Bristol actually win the Premiership at all?
Er...nooo
Thats other teams acts, we don't want to steal theirs
Mummy always taught me to ignore everything I see on 606 and use it purely for entertainment value, but I can be hopeful once in a while:

I could live with McAlister in the backline.
