So Toomua out and Eastmond in rumours, swapping the Bentley for a Ford Focus...
No seriously thought Eastmond was League bound?
Little bit of devilment on my part reading the last few rumours on here, Toomua's resigned hasn't he? and Eastmond's better than that I know although I thought he was going back to league?Not quite what is happening from what I hear on the street bruv.

Hope he stay's, best player in the prem IMO...Eastmond is pretty close to joining us but he isn't viewed as a potential replacement for Toomua, who would need to be brought out and will cost the wallabies $$$$$.

Matt Toomua, genuinely world class talent and IMO the best player in the prem...Toomua or eastmond? Both i really wouldnt agree, both great players for different reasons but still neither are the best players IMO.
Unless you were being sarcastic lol
Agree totally toomua is great and massively worthy of a mention, best centre, yes i could get behind that although be a close call but best player...no.Nowhere near for me. Possibly the best centre but no more than that.
What's the low down on him as a coach? I heard he was highly rated in Munster for his work with the development team but I wasn't impressed with how he had, an admittedly poor quality, Irish u20 pack playing.Is Paul O'Connell transfer up yet
A very technical coach. So I'd argue he will only be effective the higher up the ladder because of the detail in each approach and standard of player required. But he is still a novice and it will be an interesting mix. Prendy has really carved out a huge reputation started from his days as Young Munster headcoach.What's the low down on him as a coach?

It'll be worth keeping an eye on him and Mike Prendergast at Stade Francais. There are lots of Irish coaches earning their crust elsewhere at the moment. Conor O'Shea, Mark McCall, Declan Kidney, Bernard Jackman, Michael Bradley, Jeremy Davidson, Stephen Aboud, Ronan O'Gara, Girvan Dempsey, Eoin Toolan, Paul O'Connell and Mike Prendergast off the top of my head. You'd imagine some will be in contention for coaching gigs at the provinces at some point.
