Rhys Oakley comes back across the Channel

Jim Mallinder may well have been fibbing when he said that Saints had done all their recruitment. In comes another backrower to bolster the numbers.

I was always hoping that somebody like the Scarlets or Dragons would sign him but alas he was not deemed good enough even though I thought he was.

How many games do you reckon he'd play for the Dragons then? Honestly some people think we should sign any Tom Dick or Harry with a Welsh connection regardless of whether we need him or not.

Not sure how many games he will play for the Saints either, they have a number of good options. He looks to be just international call up cover at the minute.

He can cover second row as well and with Charteris leaving and Rob Sidoli not getting any younger I though he would be a good punt for them especially with Faletua and Lydiate's international duties.
