Paolo Odogwu on the move perhaps

[RBB]

I’ll claim that scoop then

I still have no idea what you are talking about. I see no colour coding, I see no emojis. I would post a screen shot if I could. But never mind, I'll take your word for it.

Just saw that too. Could definitely be something in that!!!
However he’s been way down the pecking order at Sale this year and i hope is not instead of Leyds.

Dai is talking about rebuilding the squad again, investing in young, EQPs is a good call and he’ll be a good option for us, probably as cover for either Watson or Minozzi. 3 tricky customers indeed.
Not much older than Umaga and Sirker so hopefully Dai is seeing the rebuild can be based around youth.

Still really hoping for Leyds

Would rather we were looking at Charlie Walker who’s been released by Quins.

Here's a screenshot (I added the arrows - lol):

Great spot RBB, think over the past 2 years he’s been a stand out at the 7s. Maybe hasn’t clicked as much at sale due to the competition ahead of him, with every player ahead being an international.

Hope a bit of game time might unlock some more potential and judging by Wade’s improvement in his individual defence at Wasps, I’m sure there’s plenty of scope for him to improve

Odogwu isn't that fast, which is a problem.

[Rory87]

An awful lot of comments on the post are wishing him luck at Wasps/Ricoh next season... so assuming this will be announced in the coming weeks.

I’m happy with this signing, a young EPQ who will be eager to unlock his full potential. Yes not broken into the Sale side but we have a track record of picking up players out of favour and turning their career around. As other have said, we’re going to be rebuilding now, so what better than a young English guy to come in and be a part of that.

Compared to what? From what little I've seen he seems pretty nippy to me.

[RBB]

He looks quick to me, quick feet and a strong running style https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYS6_7jJ3JI

[NellyWellyWaspy]

He looks more like Jack Nowell. Very busy and hard to catch. Making the hard yards.

A step backwards in recruitment if true.

A step backwards in recruitment if true.

Backwards on who? Ambrose Curtis?

An improvement on Wade would be very difficult but I think Minozzi is a good replacement there with Watson of course impressing recently.
I’m hoping Leyds will be the WLR replacement

I’m viewing him a squad player and nothing more. I think he’s worth a punt, see if we can get the best out of him.

[RBB]

He has a point to prove, he was feted early on his career but ended up behind a queue of quality players at Sharks. He is moving back to his home city, therefore there is a sense of in built pride (you would hope), with the chance to excel on a big stage, let's give him a go and see what transpires. I agree he is a cover player but this season tells us we need those kind of players. We can't buy the best all of the time, we aren't the EAs. He is EQP, a raw talent and appears motivated for a challenge, I would welcome him and happy to give someone with appetite a chance. Curtis was an experiment that Dai admitted failed, Odogwu is more of a known quantity.
