Courtney Lawes going to Brive is an amazing catch & could get them into the top14.

[@ericdavison6186]

Davit Niniashvilli to Racing. Arundels' got someone to chase now! I agree also about mr chielka grabbing the tigers job.

Great to have you back

[@cornedenecker1636]

Are you guys gonna discuss the whole thing about dropping URC etc?

[@barrypower6822]

The urc ain't going anywhere

[@cornedenecker1636]

@@barrypower6822 I hope not man. It's been amazing. Id be pretty damn disappointed if we get kicked out now🙈

[@barrypower6822]

@@cornedenecker1636 the English are trying to save their own bacon by suggesting this . Maybe the Welsh will go but they won't be any loss to be honest

[@seannorris7993]

Plum has already got the Sharks going, don't know if you caught the Currie Cup semi Bulls vs Sharks. Sharks were down to 12 against 15 and the Bulls couldn't put them away. Sharks won showing major grit. A very good sign.

[@Seandontuknow]

As a supporter, having to hear the "Hollywood Bets" before Sharks still hurts

[@jingleballix]

Leicester Tigers.......Michael Cheika........oh, you beat me to it. Anyway, I hope that ENG poach Tigers' coach again.

[@WillievanZyl]

Hahaha Jim being called out for loving SA rugby 😂

[@SmcdMcd-d2k]

It’s because they grant him interviews for free

[@fergalbannon4614]

Tbh, most Leinster fans just is out this year. Barrett only arrives in December. Snyman, will he play? Who knows. And we have a French prop who had pretty much retired a while back. I wish them all well. But I hope none of them get parachuted in last minute ahead of an Irish player.

[@rory3627]

What was the other good signing for Bath? The Rugby Pod stopped early??

[@Playvideonowplease]

Guy Pepper from Newcastle. Young & promising flanker

[@sachinbangaru737]

Season ticket at Kingspark in the pocket.

[@toma411]

Nayacalevu I feel has been pretty overrated for a while now. He's dangerous in attack and has 'Fijian flair,' but that belies his poor defensive stats, and a piss poor attitude to boot. People talk like he's world class; you have to be a rounded rugby player to be a world class centre I'm afraid.

[@StanWilks]

He did throw a bit of a temper tantrum on the final whistle against England in the World Cup. 😅

[@chrislenferna4384]

Manu was an all rounded centre was he?

[@piet0004]

Best 13 going

[@user-lc2nq2vu1m]

I could only watch the highlights of the Racing game but I thought OF has lost a yard of pace so I hope he can still control a game whilst not being a running threat - Lancaster's son looks to be a great kicker so there is a replacement in the squad and I do fear for his position in the team

[@geoffhiggins742]

He never had a yard of pace

[@patrickchilds2987]

I thought Faz played well. He kicked well for territory allowing Racings lineout to attack successfully within the 22. He found ball carriers who made yards and Racing came away with 4 tries, something they struggled with last year .That said Racings scrum was poor and they got absolutely stuffed at the breakdown however I can see why Lancaster brought Faz in and I think he will do well there .

[@tvpc3194]

Sharks are real madrid

[@Nicklogann]

Finishing bottom half of the table and winning europa league. Aye sounds like Madrid all over 😂again

[@phillipmiga3961]

French league has always been harsh for south african players French club bosses expect springboks players to be like super heroes win every game don't wanna see a slight mistake forgetting the players are only humans, well its good Siya is back with the sharks

[@ronanfurlong1362]

Ross Moloney to Bath

[@seanofarrell8896]

The number of times leinster put all their eggs in one basket and backfires is getting a little silly leinster fan saying this

[@tigerclarence1248]

Not a signing but one to look out for with Quins Young hooker Nathan jibulu looking good in the warm up games bit of a handful with ball in hand

[@JohnSmith-vy4lh]

Jimmy loves SA, he's offside blind.

[@99RML]

Ah yes, French in a Wigan accent as perfected by Shaun Edwards 👌🏻
