Top Dollar Tuilagi:

Manu Tuilagi has been approached by Rugby League side Toronto Wolfpack, who are looking to pick up another big name following in SWB's footsteps.

The contract would of likely been a 7 figure sum per season if he crossed-codes, although he insists he's seeing out the end of his Leicester Tigers contract.

Williams Wanted:

Wales' form has aligned with the form of their utility back Liam Williams, who proved his international quality before and during the RWC.

This consistency hasn't gone unnoticed with the usual Top 14 culprits Toulon, who are rallying around to sign Williams (now over Wales' 60 cap threshold, with 62).

Tipuric Trending:

Another Welsh player who was in many a Dream XV of the RWC is Justin Tipuric, now being chased by Gallagher Premiership and Top 14 sides.

Bristol Bears have reportedly offer him £500k hoping to outbid any French interest coming in from Clermont Auvergne, Toulouse and Toulon.

Importing The Beast:

2019 World Cup winning prop Tendai Mtawarira has admitted to considering offers from outside of South Africa now his international career is over.

The experienced Springbok would be a major asset for any side, but at 34 years-old expect a short-term contract, which might suit family man Mtawarira.
