There was an interview with Kyle in yesterday’s Telegraph. Whilst he wasn’t drawn on the likelihood of him moving, he did make a point of saying that whilst obviously an important consideration, ‘loyalty’ had to work both ways. I have no idea how either Jordan T-H or George Lowe were handled by the club when their playing days were terminated through injury, and although he quite didn’t say as much, it was evident that Kyle wasn’t at all impressed with either case (I hadn’t realised that Jordan - a big mate of his - was struck down with injury issues).

However, after yesterday’s result against Sarries, a move to Bristol might not now be his favoured option

Gustard signings so far have been hit and miss but I feel already they are better than Kingston’s and O’Sheas, Lewies has been brilliant, Lawday works hard...
