Talks to open over Sam Prendergast's future at Leinster

The central-contract detail is the interesting part, and it's more than an administrative curiosity. A player who is the province's and increasingly the country's first-choice 10, on a provincial rather than an IRFU contract, sits in a slightly odd position: the union has less formal control over his workload and no direct stake in his development pathway, while carrying all the risk if he leaves. That's exactly the sort of gap that gets noticed only when a French or English club makes an offer, at which point everyone discovers what the arrangement actually says.

Biggar's suggestion is worth taking more seriously than it usually is, though. The Harry Byrne comparison is apt, and the reason a move works is rarely about coaching: it's that a young 10 in Dublin plays every match under the eye of people who have decided in advance what he is. A season somewhere with lower stakes and less scrutiny lets a player make mistakes that aren't nationally litigated, which is precisely what a 23-year-old fly-half needs and precisely what the current structure cannot provide.

Arrivals and exits: A country-by-country look at the Top 14's new signings

I can only assume this is a typo - the most recent news I can find on him is his extension to 2028 back in April, he’s not included on any transfer pages I can see, and he’s still listed on UBB’s website.

Em, Frawley has left Leinster for Connacht. It was pretty well publicized, surprised you missed it…..

Carbery is back at Leinster though and is an OH option.

'The phoney war on the Greatest Rivalry tour is already gale-force in its intensity.'

Klopper is one of the best young scrummagers in South Africa and he started in the URC knockouts, so Nunia acquitted himself well against a good opponent. Lomax looked like he was getting into his work, so hope for next Saturday!

'I think the Springboks will see that' : How SA could expose the All Blacks

The Bulls coach is stating the bleeding obvious. Just a lot of talk without actually saying anything. Does he think Rennie is an idiot?

The All Blacks know perfectly well that the Boks will present a much tougher challenge than Ackerman’s team. If that’s all he had to say…

Well played both teams. NZ owned the whistle and it all went their way. Bulls were good. I’m hoping NZ beat the Springboks however, I think that the Boks may lose the first test and then return the favour with interest on the next two. NZ lacking in key areas, still quality and hopefully they can mask their deficiency’s to win the series.

Taniela Tupou on Wallabies’ try-scoring history, France and Eddie Jones

TT, my favourite player. So great to see him dominating and, more importantly, enjoying his Rugby. Number one prop in the world.
