Has anyone seen this? Marty Banks a no show at his Italian club. Wonder what is going on there.

@pukunui Well, that explains why he is posting photos from NZ on his instagram account.

Note the comment from Liam Squire on this one

Marty, if you're reading this, it's been noted you're my doppleganger. Happy to turn up at Treviso and take your paycheck, whilst proving they should tear up the contract.

I must be the only rugby player never targeted by Toulon.

NMS signed...

...with us until 2019!

Yeah!

BOP's first five-eighth Dan Hollinshead has signed a short-term contract with French club Agen until the end of the Pro D2 season. Agen is currently 2nd on the points table, behind Oyonnax. He will be available for the Mitre 10 Cup.

He's joined at Agen by Ryan Tongia, who came at the end of his short-term injury replacement contract with Bayonne. He's again on an injury replacement contract (until the end of the season).

Looks like Ben Smith will be hanging around:

@JayCee good news, there's only so much money people need, and with all the free beds he must get, what more does he need

Seriously though, good stuff Bender, shows the Black jersey still has some pulling power

Wrong Smith..... and Mrs Smith will thank you to type beers more carefully!

[gt12]

Great news!

Although he'll be 32 (or so) by the next WC. That would make him proper old for an AB outside back I guess - but no doubt Rotated will be in soon to talk about that

Who's betting that this means Dagg to Toulon?

[JayCee]

@gt12 I hope not, but more than likely. While I was disappointed we lost Cruden, I'll be gutted if we lose Dagg after last season's form. With NMS back and Smith locked up we have some great versatility/depth.

@Stargazer

As much as I love him, particularly for his work at the Chiefs, where him leaving would be bad for us - think it's probably worth going.

I can't see him getting to number 2 in the AB pecking order again, and there are younguns about too.

Yeah its a position with crazy competition at the moment. Could see him going, and wouldn't blame him.

I fuckin' hate Toulon/Mourad Boudjellal
