They'll be made public when the suits are ready to make them
public. I'd still assume that will be around membership renewal
time...

It would make good marketing sense to do if that way, although
with the way the season so far I would hope renewal is high
without the need to announce new signings to boost it. It will
be interesting to see how many of the rugby papers predictions
do come in. Talking to some Sarries supporters they think Kpoku
is on his way to Quins.

Akker is a fine player. Very handy.
I do hope we get Snyman.

If it is true, Joel Kpoku would be an excellent addition to the
squad. With Gussey being ex Saracens I can see him whispering in
Kpokus ear telling him that he will get a lot of game time in
the Premiership.
RG Snyman and Kpoku would be an amazing partnership. It's not as
if symonds is not playing well, but it could give us great depth
in the locks. Especially with the Dominator also able to play
there.

Never really anticipated 2 new locks coming in and certainly not
of that quality. If true though, Snyman/Kpoku/Symons/Horwill is
a top-of-the-Prem set of locks...

Yes indeed. It would also enable us to manage Horwill's game
time voluntarily, as he's probably not got that many games left.

Does this Kpoku rumour have any credibility though? Seems a bit
more Chinese whispers than anything else? Although I can see the
logic from Kpoku's pov - Itoje and Kruis still both relatively
young and starting for England. The monster that is Skelton
there too. Where's his (regular) game time going to come from?

Exactly, he had only seen play in the prem cup i believe. Where
he has been excellent.
I expect the success that Nathan Earle has had is giving some
food for thought.
I have no Intel to prove the link, however it does make logical
sense when Gustard, Earle being in his ear and with the depth of
talent at Saracens eg Kruis, Itojay, big aussies, Nick Isiekwe
etc..

There is the other Kpoku, Jon who is also at Sarries. Is being
linked with a move away, possb to France. I would think if we
are getting a Kpoku, he would be the more likely??
