Le talonneur argentin Santiago Socino s'apprête à rejoindre la Pro D2
Gloucester a confirmé que le talonneur argentin Santiago Socino quittera Kingsholm à la fin de la saison pour rejoindre Agen. Une bonne nouvelle pour le club français qui intervient quelques jours après l’annonce de l’arrivée de l’international anglais Jack Maunder, demi de mêlée des Melbourne Rebels.

L’international argentin (7 sélections entre 2019 et 2022), ancien des Jaguares (2019) fait partie des Cherry and Whites depuis 2020, après avoir signé un contrat à court terme. Il rejoindra une équipe d’Agen qui occupe actuellement la dixième place de la Pro D2.
Le joueur de 31 ans (1,87 m, 114 kg) compte 60 apparitions sous le maillot de Gloucester. Il a débuté sur le banc lors de la récente victoire de Gloucester en Challenge Cup contre les Ospreys, qui ont ainsi décroché leur billet pour les demi-finales.
Il a signé pour trois saisons à Agen, ce qui devrait l’emmener jusqu’en 2027.
Gloucester attend maintenant le Racingman Christian Wade
Gloucester devrait connaître de nombreux changements au cours de l’été, avec un certain nombre d’arrivées et de départs au sein du club. Socino suit ainsi Adam Hastings et Alex Hearle, qui quitteront le club à la fin de la saison, ainsi que Louis Rees-Zammit, parti en NFL à la mi-saison.
Les internationaux gallois Tomos Williams et Gareth Anscombe, ainsi que l’ailier anglais du Racing 92 Christian Wade sont tous prêts à arriver, en plus du retour du talonneur anglais Jack Singleton après son prêt à Toulon.

A Springbok 2-0 win: haha told you we were champions now shut up An Irish 2-0 win: the referee was under orders from world rugby to cheat us but luckily we don’t care because this is part of Rassie’s grand world Cup plan.

2 Go to commentsTo be fair, the teams he's had to put out are reminiscent of those available to Gatland during his horrible run at the Chiefs in late 2020. Anyway, he's only got a two year contract and Wellingtonian Tamati Ellison will be ready by then, as will a lot of talented youngsters (like the Chiefs Gatland blooded). The Crusaders are planning for the long term.

2 Go to commentsPoetic justice for trying to sell him to Australia as another kiwi saviour coach, not ! Deans was just as bad actually but McCaw and Carter covered up for him. That’s why they didn’t want him as All Black coach, even after Graeme Henry’s bumbling effort in 2007.

5 Go to commentsSafas are so triggered by Ireland. 3 consecutive losses, incl RWC. 8 losses out of last 12 Tests. Always excuses, of course, with Bok fans. Now Rassie with his “88%” nonsense, the Claytons Excuse is an embarrassment to Bok teams of the past when every test mattered. Their fickle mojo will be on edge for the Ireland tour. Have the referees been appointed yet ? They will need security. Have WR laid out strict guidelines for TMO’s and replays on the stadium screens ? Will the constant stoppages from Bok forwards for cramps and bootlaces be tolerated ? We’re not talking a dominant Springbok team here, they won the LOTTO Cup and they know it whether they admit it or not. The Disney doco has their fans positively fermenting internally, its going to be a nasty hangover if they get beaten on home soil. What will the excuses be then……

103 Go to commentsIt is so good that we now all get excited and debate who is best and emotionally get involved. We all back our teams which is great. Up until about 15-20 years ago, NZ was basically on its own, and then Saffa, Aussie and sometimes French and English were there. We now have at least 5-6 really top sides and another 4 who keep improving. This is so healthy. So we should not resort to rubbish comments and unhealthy debate, but rather all be chuffed that the product we watch is not competitive, exciting and often uncertain. It would be so good if World Rugger could find a way to align the rules to professional players as well as spectators. Live rugby games are SO boring as there is SO much down time as we wait for refs and TMOs and whoever else to look at every small event going back endless phases with the hope of eventually find a minute infringement to then decide cancel what was a wonderful try. This is the ultimate cork back in the bottle moment and feels like every balloon is always being popped. Come on- we must be better with the rules.

Out of shock I shouted Ireland are going to win the world cup. Upon waking up I apologised for the distress caused by my Ireland comment. The matter is closed. If you wish to pursue this matter may I remind you what I told Wayne Barnes when he sent me off. I AM A BIG ASS MAN”. Or was it “I AM A BIG ASS, MAN” or was it “I AM A BIG ASSMAN”?
2 Go to commentsThe only championship the Boks hold are: Great value for the incompetence of referees during the RWC Moaning endlessly and champions of spewing utterly ignorant 💩 at all times. Displaying the dangers of a third world education End of.
103 Go to commentsSouth Africa and Rassie do a phenomenal job of treating the 4 years in between World Cups as nothing more than a training exercise to build squad depth. The Six Nations money that keeps Irish rugby afloat is unfortunately too important to allow the same approach, and basic population size means we'll never get close to matching the depth of South Africa, England and France. That being said, Irish rugby is in a relatively good place and slowly improving inch by inch. If the other three provinces can pull the finger out and actually develop some players it'd be even better.

2 Go to comments“It is the people’s favourite against the actual favourite. It is the people’s champions against the actual champions. I’m joking, but it’s going to be a fantastic series.” Why did Darcy make that joke knowing it would be used as click bait? Why did RP headline it as a serious comment? Anyway, the tired comment isn’t very astute. SA players may have played more games etc. Darcy over estimated as a pundit.
