Heard on the grapevine that we are linked with Ryan Jones again. Heard this from 2 different people, however, I do not take any responsibility if it's not true!!!!

Love Ryan to come across to us as i think he's an excellent pro, but can you honestly see him in Scarlet?

2014. That's one heck of a large contract to buy out Alun.

Indeed it is... As I said, I'm only putting up what I've heard from 2 people. I don't personally see this happening.

Seriously though, He seems a loyal servant to the Ospreys, they would surely have had to piss him off greatly or be desperate to get rid of him.
Great player and good role model though

1. Please explain to me why he would want to leave the Ospreys, when some would argue he is playing his best rugby for 3-4 years?
2. Where are we getting the money from to sign a Georgian prop, an Argentinian 2nd row and a current welsh squad member?
3. Are there any immigration controls in cloud cuckoo land?

Spot on,,,, though he would be far better at everything, if he played in Scarlet and if your reading the topic yet again Ryan, have a nice day from the Lofty brigade down by the Liability,,

What is true is the O's, like the Blues, are not skimming a bit of their payroll, they are looking to take out big chunks.
They had an acceptable offer for Bowe whilst still in contract, and have interest in Ian Evans from many parties (again still under contract)...they also have/are letting a large number of squad players.
What I'm saying is that if the right offer for Ryan came along, and he wanted to go, then it could well happen.
Un-heard of in recent times.

1) Skint,
2) Loss of players equates to wages being available,
3) No immigration controls into Llanelli,
4) Do you get any joy from anything,

See my posts in the Carizza thread. We may have been fortunate but this EXACTLY the sort of player that we should be targeting.
Ryan Jones will not be coming here.

he's not alone on this rumour, i have also heard this. but what comes from what we think is a good source isnt always true.but in regards to your questions though -
1. Please explain to me why he would want to leave the Ospreys, when some would argue he is playing his best rugby for 3-4 years? eventhough still in contract ospreys are £18m in debt are fighting EXTREMELY hard to get ther playing budget down to £3.5m.
2. Where are we getting the money from to sign a Georgian prop, an Argentinian 2nd row and a current welsh squad member? we are still trying to get UPTO £3.5m a year for our squad, we had 18 players out of contract, Lamont, Ben, Dom, already gone, manu (runoured to dragons), iestyn, rhys t (both possible retirements, steve (rumoured to leave), lou reed (rumoured to blues, exeter and worcester), then theres players like dan evans, fenby etc, (fringe players who are out of contract and who can be replaced by boys from the acadamy if they leave.)
