I guess the situation regarding Eastmond is interesting . If I were Bath, I wouldn't look to him joining 'til next pre-season. If I were Saints, I'd want to get rid as soon as possible!

Oh, and hands off Luke Gale.

Yeah but the Union season starts in September, so their pre-season is July and August mainly, I'd imagine that's when Bath want him for. He'll take a few months to get up to speed with the tactics and so on.

tactics?



See ball. Catch ball. Hoof ball into crowd. Enjoy warm applause. Spend 10 minutes watching scrum full of fat blokes repeatedly collapse and reassemble. Think about what you're having for tea.

There, that about covers it.

I think you lot should go in for Saqib as a 'dual' - he was awesome for the Broncos at Toulouse

Saints fans seem to celebrating that Luke's agent was at Friday night's game having a "few shandy's" so they seem to feel he is lined up to sign for them, this is the Greatest Club who feel they have a production line for youngsters??? I hear rumours they have an international ready to replace Eastmond!
