Bath PlugBath RugbyErrr… wrong picture… I did not say Bath Plug, I said Bath Rugby! OK, here’s the right one!

Gmpfff, still looks somewhat the same!

 

Anyway… Bath head coach Mike Ford has said the club are not in the market for Springbok loose forward Duane Vermeulen.

Earlier in the week there was speculation that Bath were on the hunt for Vermeulen to be one of their marquee players alongside Wallaby Will Genia.

“It was news to us when it was mentioned to us earlier today,” Ford said on Tuesday.

Reports in the national press suggested that owner Bruce Craig had launched a bid to sign Vermeulen from the Stormers after the World Cup.

They claimed the deal would be worth £450,000 per season, making Vermeulen the second-highest earner in the Premiership behind new Rugby Union-convert Sam Burgess.

    and choose well your club
    urbans do well in paris or toulouse or bordeaux
    countrymen in toulon or castres

    let’s say a spies bet would be perhaps a better bet
