Any thoughts??
Open side or outhalf I'd reckon and given our recent high profile signings expect a reasonably big name.
Rumours out there???

David Pocock
You've got to get your first tackle in early, even if it's late.

We wont get an out half, IRFU generally don't let the provinces sign a NIQ 10 and we have PJ so all the more reason not to.
Jerome Kaino was linked but he has opted for Japan but Heinrich Brussow has been mentioned.
Chris Henry is superhuman... I think he's half cyborg

I heard that all contracts for next season were in place, but not all were in the public domain yet.

Mods, get this onto Transfer Rumours please!
By the way, I heard Spies was out of contract at the end of the season...
You haven't seen me at my best yet. Let's be honest, you probably never will.

This was an honest question and whilst I did use the word rumours I am also aware that some posters have inside knowledge.
Was looking for a definitive position +/- name.
Who reads the rumours section anyway???

We don't want anyone who will be away on international duty, that's another reason why Pedrie will be difficult to replace....

Er, me!
I wasn't putting you down Hamster, I just thought this would be better off over in TR. Sorry if I caused any offence.

No worries ruckover. Looks like a back rower and suggestions of big name.
I'd take any of big-als or spies !
Will follow up on rumours section if moved.
I tend to just lurk on this thread.
Bring on Saturday!
