First two seasons I was a bit Meh about Baldwin, probably a lot down to the injuries, but end of last season and so far this term he has been at his best will be a real shame to lose him and am hoping he stays.

I’d like to see Musk get a few more games

Id have him on the bench over Elia.  Im undecided on Elia.  Has given away some daft pens and his throwing can be (not always) ropey.  He has potential to be a really useful player though

No sure his family have moved to Surrey, and Worcester would undoubtedly be a place where he could commute!

Real shame to see Baldwin go. Easily our best hooker. Agree with  Maidstone Quin that we'll need a high quality replacement.

If Baldwin is going then I think we need a bit of a reset at hooker. I'd be okay with Gray and Elia both going too. Gray has been pretty poor since his return and whilst Elia is dangerous in the loose, his set-piece and indiscipline are always a concern. Happy with Elia coming off the bench once a game opens up but always concerned when I see him starting.

Is Musk ready to really challenge yet?

Baldwin just tweeted a Jester/Joker card emoji. Could suggest he is denying the rumours he is leaving.

If this was last season I'd wouldn't have cared, but this season is a different story, we will miss him.

TRP also saying that we wanted Bongi Mbonambi to replace him. He is staying with the stormers though

Didn't think I'd be sad to see him go but he's been so improved this season

His form also seems to have helped Elia who is also more consistent. I like Elia but he is not good enough to be our 1st choice.

I agree. We've waited a few seasons for a quality hooker who can hit double top consistently so a direct replacement would be better.

He should have gone off for an HIA yesterday though, that was poor by the medics and the referee.

Big shame I think. We need a similar standard straight into first team player, as I don’t feel any of the other hookers are going to nail that spot down. Would rather we lose Baldwin and Gray and get in a class option with Elia and academy as the rest

Would be a shame to see him go. The front row of Marler Baldwin Louw has become quite a good unit recently

He’s much improved now that he’s getting a run of games so bit of a shame but guess money and probably location works for him. 

We’ve got a couple of very decent young hookers and obviously Elia, might need a bit of experience in the mix but hopefully there’s a solid bases ready to come through

According to TRP he’s definitely off to Worcester which I think is a real shame, we need someone of real quality to replace him.
