See that Olding has signed for Brive 42 reporting

Just Jackson to sign for someone

Hope for a different club best for both as they knew each other too well .

Didn't stand a chance of staying in the Top 14 with a 17 million euro budget.

Big Jeremy has a history of turning clubs in this position around. Hope he signs Jackson as well and has a great season.

Glad to see Stu getting a contract. Brive is probably a good fit - small provincial city who love their rugby. No big city lights & few distractions. Being outside of the European competitions & out of the limelight for a season should help him too. Stu has enough talent to star in that league & having a coach from back home should also be beneficial.

Good news.

Well done JD and Brive for having the balls to sign a player found innocent in a Court of Law and who is guilty of nothing other than what most of us would also be guilty of ie "inappropriate" private conversation. I hope SO stays injury free and has a great couple of seasons in France and I hope his signing makes it easier for another club to sign PJ.

Great news for SO, here' s hoping for a successful, injury free (as much as it can be these days) time at his new club. Vive Brives!

Hopefully PJ is already sorted and keeping Schtum.

Heartening to see an Ulster/Irish rugby coach with a set of balls.
Good luck JD & Stu.

Brive is close to Bordeaux Montpellier Toulouse and Clermont

Which can we draw in Europe?
Would get a good amount of Ulstermen making a special trip

Toulouse and Montpellier. Bordeaux and Clermont in Parker Pen. Castres also a possible opponent, you would fly to Toulouse for Castres.

Brive roughly 2 hrs by car or 3 hrs by train from Toulouse. 200 km or 125 miles.

Bordeaux and Clermont are in the PP but pretty sure we can draw Montpellier or Toulouse.

It's not that close btw. Over 300 mile to Montpellier and over 250 to Toulouse.

Sorry got that wrong.About 200 and 125. Think I was in km :lol:
