First topic message reminder :

With the news that Leinster tight head prop Nathan White is off to Connacht next season I thought i should do up a thread to track all incoming, outgoing and re-contracting players.

At the moment, all we know for sure is:

Out:

Nathan White – Prop – Connacht
Mat Berquist – Out Half – Biarritz
Stephen Sykes – Lock – Sharks?

In:

Brad Thorn – Lock – Fukuoka Sanix Blues (3 month contract)

Players whose contract ends this season:

Avua'a
Boss
Browne
Carr
Cooney
D'Arcy
Dundon
Fitzgerald
Flanagan
Macken
Madigan - new 2 year contact
O'Connell
Reddan
Ruddock - new 2 year contact
Tom Sexton
Van Der Merwe

According to this article in the Times the deal with Fitzgerald is in danger.

in better news Madigan has signed a new 2 year contract.

The reality is that playing in the Pro12 would help his international hopes, but playing for Leinster and playing well for Leinster would mean he's impossible to ignore. I'm glad he chose us and we're keeping him on because although he's far from the finished article, he's only 22 and clearly the management can see that he has massive potential.
Your punishment for calling me an Ubernerd is me pointing out that he won't be 22 until November.

Nice haul.

NPC. NRL. State of Origin. probably several more too.

Grand Slam tourist 2008 & 2010, 3N winner 2003, 2008, 2010 (inc a Grand Slam 2010), Bledisloe Cup (we’ve had it since he started playing for NZ) winner....

His place in history is well and truly assured....
And an RL world cup too

He wasn't picked for the 2000 tournament http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000_Rugby_League_World_Cup_squads

Its frustrating how so few people remember this. Bowe was the form player in the country in the 12 months preceding his Ospreys move. Undoubtably he improved even further at the Ospreys but he'd already established himself as the Irish starting 14 before his Ospreys move and was a shining light in an underperforming Ulster side.

It was being left out of the 2007 RWC which was the real catalyst for Bowe's improvement I think. From then onwards he was a different player.
