Maybe Eastmond next to leave Bath .

Now that would be very exciting

Some on the RU forums think he'll be next . A few issues off the pitch ? & snubbed by England . I think he plays centre for Bath also , Not sure on the differences of the centre positions within both codes , I don't think I can remember him playing centre in league before his move south .

I thought he play at scrum half. Very inconsistent if I remember

Didn't eastmond play centre in the 2006 GF?
Edit. He didn't but I'm sure did in some SL games

eastmond will be on an absolute wedge in union. Only way he's coming back is if leeds, saints or wire make him their marquee player and leeds don't need any centres

Perhaps a Wakey player might be near the truth.

Care to elaborate

Craig Hall

I'd take godinet...

I know Radford likes Lyne and has tried to sign him before.

Riley has just been released also, realistically there isn't one Wakey player from last seasons squad that I would sign and improve us.

Not convinced that Washbrook was needed but he is here now, so will see how he goes.

I really hope no one at the club thinks reece lynne pr chris riley would improve our back line. To be talking about signing carney and then signing one of those 2 would be a slap in the face for the fans. We need to sign someone who would improve us not a cast off from last season's whipping boys

Is that the same whipping boys that came within a whisker of doing the double over the mighty all conquering black and whites last season

No it's ones who won just three from twenty-three in the regular season and then finished two points off 7th in the Super 8s.

So it is the same team then

No, it's the ones who were a couple of minutes from playing championship rugby next season

Wakey were never a couple of minutes away from championship rugby. Banter is only interesting if it is accurate.

Thus speaks the Bantersaurus Rex. Bratfud were only 1 coverted try away from a draw in a tight finish, with Golden point beckoning????????? If my feeble memory serves me well??????

Winning 18-16 with 15 minutes to go and a last minute converted try was pretty close to championship rugby.

My feeble memory does not serve me well

Thought it was 22-16

You mean the one that was a couple of minutes from beating the big spending under achieving team and doing the double over them despite having nine players missing through injury from the team that hammered you only days earlier, how embarrassing is that for a club whose motto seems to be, we'll just throw more money at it.

If 26-16 is a hammering, I wonder what losing 0-80 against Warrington is called?

Daniel Vidot has signed for Salford
