What a perfect time to start.

So, the team with current biggest scandal going on is Gloucester right?

It does indeed, but front page is king, and this one says Fred.

And anyway, we're English, why can't we have two...

Strange how some clubs seem to not (at least at the moment) have huge numbers leaving, whereas others do.

Maybe how they were approached with the reduction in contracts? Or if done before the 18th, there may not have been any reduction at all.

Yeah, Saints, Tigers, Quins, Bears and Bath all losing a lot of players. Tigers potentially eclipsing them all if those players leave.

Times says Genge, Ford, Tuilagi, Bateman and Eastmond are the holdouts. That would be a hammer blow.

Is there going to be any rugby left at the end of this?

Whilst I don't see it happening, I'd love to get Genge at Wasps. Not sure his attitude would fit (not saying he has a bad attitude, but he strikes me as a potentially marmite character), but he is a great player.

Might not mean much, but seen someone who normally has inside info at tigers, saying he's not worried too much. Now whether that's he's not worried about losing the players, or that the players aren't leaving, I'm not sure.

If Leicester lose George then does that mean Mike Ford will knob off and try and undercut some other head coach???
