+ Sinoti can play 14, which would facilitate Carr/TOH playing their preferred left wing

He has also played 12/13 and 15 for Zebre.

Certainly an option as a crash ball centre with a step and pace

I think he's a good signing. Fets is a top of the ground player, unfortunately in our climate that's only 2 months of the year. Will be sad to see him go though. He's a great sight in full flight.

So far we have:

White (NIQ/project)
Clarke (NIE)
Naoupu (NIE)
Parks (NIE)
Poolman (NIQ/project)

so if we sign Sinoti (NIE) I think that's it.

Maybe in red to replace Doug Howlett according to Munster forum

For us Sinoti is very likely to come, even french websites are talking about this

Fets has tweeted that this is his last full week in Galway. So that's that, then.

nothing official, but the deal seems on a good way!

And another source: www.dotrugby.it/blog/44209/news/pro-12-s...e-zebre-per-connacht . Even his wikipedia page has been updated: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinoti_Sinoti

Having said that many of these media companies are just quoting eachother without any fresh facts. If we are going to have a NIQ wing give me Fets over Sinoti any day. I guess the €€€€€€ is the bottom line.

Take this with a pinch of salt, there hasn't been one iota of information from a verifiable source and looking at the profile of the Wikipedia updater it is someone who keeps adding speculation rather than fact to some profiles.

Anyway I agree about Fets, if we have the money for Sinoti we should be keeping Fets...

None of those are world class

We need a nacewa or howlett of our own.

Most of those are squad fillers. The rest rabo standard.

For this tem to really bridge the gap we need more.

Cochrane never signed for us. We showed interest but it cooled after Fionn Carr signed on.

Did anyone see the Tommy O'Donnell interview in one of the papers last week? Apparently Connacht tried to sign him last season but he decided to stay. Shame.

It was rumoured very early on but i dont think he was ever signed. It definately wasnt announced anyway.

Didn't we sign a lad from ulster, cochrane?

We have enough wingers ie Finn, Layden, Toh, Healy, Carr, Sinoti(Not confirmed), Poolman, Fets(if still here), loxton(if still here), Jarvis(if still here),Steve Macauley,(youg but promising) Henshaw

think we need a good hooker and good 7 at a minimum for the pack.

Won't be too far ok with that.

Would still like to see a world class winger if poolman is looked at for centre going forward.
