O'Donnell makes the bench v the Grumbles.

Sunwolves aren't cut til the end of next season (2020) and the Top League teams won't be sharing their players with them in their final year, so every chance for Conan to make a name for himself.

Great to see George still togging out. I wonder if he still does those one-handed line-out catches??

They were one of the teams that allegedly expressed interest in joining the Pro14.

Under 20 Grand Slam winner Second-rower James Cannon will be joining Ealing Trailfinders in the summer

IQ colony's getting bigger and bigger there

I seem to remember KK had little interest in giving game time to lads he knew weren't going to be with the team the next season.

Keeping Henshaw would have cost us zero on a central contract. Keeping Ahki would have cost us the thick end of a quarter million per season (average Top 14 wage is ~200k p/a). Was never going to happen once Toulouse made eyes at him.

Very true, but strange we didn't seem to try make more use of him when he was here.

Fair point, but signing him and not using him probably won't go down as our greatest piece of business. It will be an interesting matchup anyway.

Wonder would Ahki have stayed if Friend had been in charge.
