Rumours
Re: Rumours
I’m positive that I saw Tom Hudson training with the team before the Sale game, he didn’t look injured to me. He was kicking the ball back and forth with Banahan.
Re: Rumours
Ashton to Quins confirmed.
Maybe dealing with both Yarde and Ashton was too much for Diamond 
Re: Rumours
Id like to see us make a serious attempt at getting Lozowski, as in chuck all the money from Kriel and Dreyer at him. We dont need a dedicated 10, but a centre who can play there. Add the fact hes won multiple titles (dont care that they cheated, they still won them) it would be an ideal solution.

I’ll happily have May back. Tried and tested international and a likely Lion next summer. Yes we have options, but having him as an option over Banahan or Sharples for me is a no brainer. Marshall, Woodward and Thorley have all had long spells out so would mean our quality is never subsidised. I wouldn’t be surprised to see one of the three and maybe even LRZ repositioned.
Fan favourites have left and returned before. If Jonny does come back, that first electric break or try will make his Leicester career a distant memory.
Re: Rumours
Judging from previous years (when our business was all done long before it was announced) and what Lance Bradley has just said I’m pretty confident our signings are all made.
Re: Rumours
Realistic ambitions.
1. Stay in top flight
2. Entertain
3. If in the Parker Pen reach a minimum of a semi-final
4. Finish in top six
5. Get out of European Cup group.
6. Finish in top 4 at least every other year.
7. Win play-offs.[/quote]
You missed "re-establish Fortress Kingsholm" and "beat B**h"
Re: Rumours
So then, here's who we're linked with.

How many will be ticked off in the next few days and will there be any surprises not on that list...

To call Jonny May a "turncoat" demonstrates that you are unaware of the main reason why he left the club. It was personal and entirely understandable.
I would welcome JM back with open arms BUT I also don't think it is one of the key areas that GRFC should be looking to recruit in UNLESS LRZ's departure to one of the Welsh regions is more advanced than we know. Charlie Sharples is sadly yesterday's man and Ollie Thorley will hopefully increasingly be absent with England.
