To'omua and Taf arriving in England today.

Not threats. Tigers have to recall them or the PRL will fine them. Saints get fined 60K for every time North was with the WRU during a non international game weekend. So Tigers could be looking at a total fine of 240K if they don't.

:eek:

Talk is it all was quite amiable between Aus, To'omua and Tigers after the initial disappointment which is a nice change for once.

With our track record of freak season ending injuries especially at centres that might be a tall ask.

I wish him all the best. Will miss him, a Great player and a better bloke certainly improved the coffee game at Tigers since his arrival.

It's one of the main reason why a lot of European clubs tend to have a decent sized PI contingent to help counter the home sickness. That would be more of a surprise than To'omua IMO eggchasers mentioned he might have his head turned so he can play in the world cup, but pretty sure he can...

Yeh the transfer market in Europe has had a huge increase a lot of it is down to players having change of hearts in middle of contract but all require a lot of work behind the scenes. (I'm being slightly biased about the work as i'm friends with someone who works with a agency and the work to...

The fact that the second contract hasn’t commenced is pretty irrelevant now it signed. I also didn’t suggest Tigers will be looking for a large payout. I just stated that Tigers are one of the very few prem clubs that is financially sound and in terms of positions to be in that could play...

You’d be surprised it can seem a lot easier than it actually is. From Tigers POV George Ford - Cost us 300k and Freddie Burns was going to cost around £500k Jonny May - Gloucester was wanting around £250-300k settles for Slater Mike Fitzgerald - Had to pay release from his provincial team in...

Not sure how you work that out?

Tigers fans are alright with it, he's very popular. Coaches on the other hand will be annoyed considering they were expecting him not to be selected.

No his first contract goes 2016/17 2017/18 2018/19 With the extension 2019/20 Out of contract. TBH I don't see him joining Rebels till after this season, and with the compensation and the free marquee the post RWC market would most likely be the best time to pick up a replacement...

He's playing for you guys in the Championship along with Taf.

T He signed for 3 seasons orginally So 2016-2019 He then signed a 1 year extension on top of that which would take it to the end of the 2020 season in Novemeber. From what I gather he will play for Australia this season but will still be at tigers till end of NH 2020 season...

Technically he has another year on his contract after that. So would need to be brought out.

Well at least Tigers will be getting some big bucks to release him. Plays more at 12, looked good at 10 though. There was a rumour on here about him potentially signing a contract for someone after his Tigers one runs out (so the 2021 super rugby season) and cheika trying to use that.

Eggchasers started it. Not heard anything on this end. BUT he did sign a new deal till June 2020 in November. He's currently in Leicester doing pre-season training though so will be interesting if he gets a call up for the rugby champ. Although the wording of that tweet suggests it...

Nah leave at Tigers please. The guy is 100% commitment around the field smashing rucks, been destroying teams in the scrum (part of a front row that has binned 2 opposition props in 2 weeks at the scrum) and his lineouts have been fine, also possessor of the best smile in Prem Rugby...

To'omua signs a new deal at tigers that will take him till the end of the 2020 season. https://www.leicestertigers.com/news/To'omua-to-be-a-tiger-until-2020
