High demand for Webber:

Rob Webber is supposedly on his way up in the North with Sale Sharks.

As the rumours about Tommy Taylor's potential departure have flooded social media, so to have the rumours about his replacement.

Sonny done with Union

Sonny Bill Williams has recently joined up with the New Zealand sevens squad to prepare for the Wellington round of the World Series.

After his former club Sydney City Roosters stepped up offloading players to free up its salary cap, it seems like they'd be ready to make an approach.

Saying Williams would be the most likely to end up at Bondi.

"If Sonny decides to come back to rugby league, we'd love to be his club of choice," Roosters boss Brian Canavan said.

Vito signing in France

As reported briefly before...

La Rochelle are now "on the point" of officially announcing the signing of All Black Viktor Vito.

Toulon to leave the Top 14

Mourad Boudjellal is believed to be taking steps for Toulon to integrate into the English Aviva Premiership.

Boudjellal had already mentioned the possibility that Toulon leaves the Top 14 and fights a foreign championship.

The president of the RCT seems to have settled on England and the Premiership.

"I wrote for a contact. If this is not possible the next season, maybe the one after that. It would be a huge added value. And I'm serious in my approach."
