And Sarries announced it 20 mins ago on Twitter. Poor form.

Well Sarries have announced on their official before Quins have
Cant see another TH coming in myself, even if we lose one of
Swainston or Mcnulty.. Sink, Collier, Kerrod,
Swainston/Mcnulty, Sassone. Cant see us having 6 on the books.
Of course, as mentioned if both Swainston and Mcnulty go then I
would expect an incoming, although more of a squad filler.

It's really not.
Didn't we go through this with the French club and whoever it
was?
Unless there some condition of announcement because it's a big
deal, totally up to them to announce it if they want.
If I moved jobs my current employer wouldn't put out a press
release, but my new one would.
Never get the claims of some kind of etiquette on this. It's not
like they're announcing someone died.

I'd guess Ian Peel has had a look at him and thinks he can do
something with him. Obviously seen him through the England age
grade years as well

Maybe Mr. Joel Kpoku coming the other way??? Would be a good
swap

All comes down to status quo. My guess is your employment isn't
part of a market quite like the buying and selling of rugby
players. Let's not forget that their wages wouldn't be paid
without the fans who support the club so over time a form of
common decency has developed whereby, most of the time, the club
the player is leaving is allowed to announce the player's
departure before his destination club does - normally without
saying where they're going so as not to ruin the surprise for
the new club's fans, again due to common decency.
I guess I'm being idealist and sentimental but it would be nice
to keep that ethos in the game if at all possible. And maybe
it's Quins' social media team's fault and they were supposed to
have an announcement ready for 10am today or something. Who
knows - either way, it would just be nice if this didn't become
"a thing". I sense it already is.

I think in essence you should let the selling/leaving club
announce first. However if they have had plenty of time to do so
and don’t the new club can only wait so long. I don’t know
details on this one but failing a complaint from Quins it won’t
concern me much

I'm not going to cry about spilt milk, just seen this before
(and yes, I believe Quins must have been guilty of it too) and
would prefer not to see it again. But yeah, obviously not the
end of the world!
Sadder that Josh felt he couldn't push on with us - I could
really have seen him and Kyle sharing the 3 shirt in future
years if Big J managed to sort out his scrummaging - but he
obviously wants a shot at nailing down a regular starting spot
somewhere sooner than that and Sarries' ageing prop stock
probably offers him that.
