The other place saying Freddie Burns to us. ‘Tigerburnie’ no idea if any substance.

Seems to have originated on the Bath Rugby Plug Podcast.

If so would  seem he is a replacement for Billy Searle.

However it could be Lima is off to France, as has been rumoured elsewhere.

But coventry telegraph ruled this out the other week. They didn't rule out Brad Shields, Rob Howley, Sopoaga, Lozowski or Nick Grigg rumours however.

Yeah think they orig got it from the same source as all of us, rugbypass. TRP indicated Burns had no interest in Wasps and was linked, with Sops, to Lyon.

Nick Grigg Re-signs with Glasgow, straight from their Twitter.

Well there goes that rumour.

Ruck.co.uk have us linked to Ryan Mills again who apparently wants a move for one last crack at England.
Only issues are he is still in contract and rumoured to be asking for a release and hasn’t he been captain this year?
Apparently best buds with Robson and waiting for wasps to improve their offer.

Think Dai might have been in twice already for him over the years, but that of course could all be out of the window now

Regardless of if it involves us....would certainly be a great fit for England...if they can bear to play without Farrelll....

Mills would be a good fit, can cover 10 and 12. Hasn't got to move house and can cover what has been a troublesome position at 12 and we will need another 10, as I expect Lima not to be extended now.
It was fine when I left it.....

I'd love him here. Very intelligent player who makes things happen around him.

Good player. Would like to see him at 12 for us.

Think he’s been the player most mentioned for everyone’s realistic ideal 12 over the past year or 2. Still only 27 but lots of experience and leadership.

Seems like a move that makes sense

He's also been a player link many times as on clubs / supporters want list but has never moved, i'm not sure why that would change.
The fact he's contracted already shuts this rumour down. He is a quality player though no doubt.

So if Sale get Koch, that's 3 very good tightheads, at least 2 of whom must be on a pretty packet.

If the reported 350k JCW moved for is accurate, and I have no reason to doubt that, and he isn't even a starter, RWC winner Kock must be on similar at least...they are spending about 1mil in 1 position. Blimey. Rumoured to be advanced talks with Loz too..must be cheap to live up there
