Re: Contracts
According to Sportsjoe, Tadhg is about to sign a nice central contract worth €400-€450

Expect grumblings about double standards and other players not being offered as much.

Re: Contracts
In fairness, I wouldn't worry about the grumblings of the lunatic fringe, its the grumblings of the saner fans that I, for want of a better word, heed - and they'll be aware of the market.

Re: Contracts
Interestingly it's kinda similar to American football, where the best paid players are usually the QB and the Blind Side/Left Tackle (which is where you'd probably stick Tadhg were he to play it).Dave Cahill wrote:Nah, the best paid players in rugby these days are tighthead props, its not unusual for them to be the priority budgetwise

For vegans that is.
I was never worried that Tadhg was going to go. He wants to play for Ireland and the IRFU are committed to making that happen.

Re: Contracts
Makes absolute sense. He's the only Irish player that would be in 90% of people's world 15. Unquestionably world class. Murray, Sexton, O'Brien etc are all in the top couple of options, but not as certain as Tadhg.Laighin Break wrote:According to Sportsjoe, Tadhg is about to sign a nice central contract worth €400-€450

Re: Contracts
Totally agree on Furlong. Think Murray and Sexton are pretty much irreplaceable in terms of what they contribute at the moment given Jackson's situation - Joey moving forward but still very much in development phase - his kicking is nowhere near international standard for example. Albeit with Luke moving in the right direction at 9 just not quite there yet.CiaranIrl wrote:Makes absolute sense. He's the only Irish player that would be in 90% of people's world 15.

Re: Contracts
Anyone have the list of who is out of contract in May. Our old mate Mildly normally has a thread somewhere.
With Ruddock, Furlong and Ringer signed the only ones I know for sure are up are Cronin, Nacewa (hopefully be skills coach next year) Murphy (Ulster) and Rob K.
There are plenty more I am not sure about. Chief among them JVDF and Luke McGrath.
