.... And then he got on the phone to Humph and Logie, logged in here and they all had their now regular early morning 'laugh at us' meeting!

There is more chance of him registering here and announcing it than answering a question like that on Twitter

It's Humph on his own, he probably doesn't even trust Logie :lol:

From the Eurosport article on Ulster signing Afoa.
The 27-year-old Auckland Blues stalwart has agreed a two-and-a-half year contract and will join the Belfast-based side on Dec. 1. He is the first current All Black to confirm his playing future after the global showcase ends in New Zealand.

"I am pretty excited about having made the decision to head to Ulster later this year," Afoa said in a statement.

Local media have reported that several other All Blacks expected to be in Graham Henry's World Cup squad are mulling offers to move offshore after the tournament with fullback Mils Muliaina already stating he was definitely considering a move.

Winger/fullback Cory Jane said he had also been approached by an overseas club but had asked for more time to consider the offer.

The New Zealand Rugby Union has asked the All Blacks to have their future playing contracts settled before the World Cup starts on Sept. 9, Fairfax newspapers reported on Thursday.

Captain Richie McCaw and flyhalf Daniel Carter are two players who have yet to decide their future.
Heres hoping one of these two will be Fridays big announcement!

Being mentioned in the same article is about as close as we'll get.

Doubt we'll ever be mentioned in the same paragraph never mind sentence!

Tommy on twitter- "Got keys to my new flat in Cardiff bay today!"

So there's the end of any remote outside chance of him coming back soon!

Tommy is an honourable guy, he will see out his contract.

Whether he is glad he signed up to extend so quickly is not so clear.

Tbh I dont want him back no matter how good he is, he left Ulster when the team wasn't going through the best of times. Much prefer someone like Cory Jane!!
You've got to get your first tackle in early, even if it's late.
