My usual 'source' is out of the loop on this one (different agent involved this time). However, Michael Paterson has been mentioned in a few places, and would stack up if true. Top class lock/BR, leaving Saints, so fits the bill, and as a bonus his wife is a doctor, so maybe even being seen as a...

At least half of those were 'first port of call' I reckon

Just off the top of my head, from the last twenty years: Kisi Pulu, Jon Koloi, Sam Tuitupou, Latu Makaafi, Apo Stewart, Scott Tolmie, Matoto, Daynes, Jacques Le Roux, Mateiki Mafi, Luis Criscuolo, 'Elisi Vunipola, Mike Mika, Simon Kerr, Zinzan Brooke, Glenn Delaney, Trent McMurray, Brendon...

The 'extra nine' is looking shaky (and Will Flinn is seen as a potential successor to White & Brazier. Very talented lad, and a sort of Kessell equivalent in that he couldn't get a starting spot due to competition - at Bath obvs - and TBH I'm surprised he's been let go, in one way, but he is...

I tried...

And Ben Nutley announced now too.

Steve Ogrizovic, sorry, Ross Stewart now confirmed as Devt Squad coach. Ross Stewart joins Coventry in new role as Development Academy Head Coach – Coventry Rugby

But the downside is that you'd have to watch W*sps.

Cheap at the moment. I expected it to go up at least two quid to be honest. I don't think they're looking to far ahead gate-wise, but 2000+ should be doable. In truth, they're targetting more hospitality and bar sales atm. Both are way below whatthey should be, but they don't have the facilities...

Oh yes!

https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0645plz Worth a listen.

JS has said (not on the radio though) that he firmly desires a 'Cowshed' on the park side of the ground. That'll do for me.

Not until tomorrow afternoon!

Oh, and Ross Stewart (new Devt coach). Ex Cambridge.

The Luton 'keeper signing will be announced tomorrow

It just feels dirty somehow. I loathe Timmy, Joy and Sisu so much that I wouldn't spit on them if they were up to their necks in the fires of hell. But I really don't like W*sps.

17500 I may even turn up myself. Oh no, W*sps still own the ground don't they? Sorry. 17499.

I agree, but the argument is that you make more out of seats, for various reasons. And for 'hospitality' by a factor of two or three times. Difficult one. I'm guessing that there will be some standing at one end only, which will not suit everyone (including me, as a long-time cowshed stander)...

The ground stuff (public domain anyway) is very much 'bit by cautious bit'. Stage one, as we already know, is the pitch replacement, but also a bit of building. This adds a storey to the changing rooms block where admin facilities will relocate to (freeing a lot of space in the East Stand). Then...

You might be right, but I couldn't possibly comment... Yes, Brett fully deserves all the accolades. Star.
