No Nigel of course he is not on a pittance. For every Rhys Webb there are opposite cases - Finn Russell & Zebo to name but two. My comment relates as much to do with ambitions to compete as it does to top line wages. Can you honestly say that the events of the past week have convinced you that a Welsh region will win the Champions Cup anytime soon? Top players thrive on big games.

Why would that influence anyone during their playing career.? Those media opportunities are there for all whether you play inside or outside Wales.

way i read it, with "most of our key retention completed" (mcnicholl was coming over as the only one not signed who may have been considered "key") the extreme lack of rumours into mid march, i would say he has signed a new dealto extend or he is not out of contract...IMHO, the player who is regarded as one of if not the best centre in the world, I would say there would be a HELL of a lot of interest and paper talk if he was not tied down. We are coming to the end of the season at the end of the day.

You’re asking a guy to give up the chance to (likely) near enough double his earning potential, and sample a different culture/way of living, all because he was made joint captain a few months earlier in a pretty token gesture. I would put a bet that not many people on this forum would turn down an extra £100k-£250k a year, I certainly wouldn’t. |

Leaving announcements are usually made well in advance, not mid March. I'm hopeful all the work has been done behind the scenes. As for singings, we usually here about them mid summer so no change there.
