Well
Care is set to sign a new deal (Cant say Im massively excited
tbh)
Quins are interested in Elliott Stooke (this would be an
excellent move)
Lang looks like he could be off to Glasgow (disappointed)

Think for Lang that would be a great move to play more rugby and
get games for Scotland.

Very true, loss for Quins but a gain for Lang.

If it's a straight choice then I would take Stooke in and Lang
out.
We badly need quality reinforcements at lock and whilst I really
rate Lang, I don't think we're getting the best out of him. One
of those players who suffers from his versatility. I think his
best position would be at 12 as a second playmaker, but it's
clear Gustard wants muscle at 12.

Given his age you'd assume the deal is relatively short and on
reduced terms.
I still think DC has plenty to offer.

This.
Lang is a good player, but is probably our 3rd choice centre
behind Esterhuizen and Marchant, whereas Stooke would most
likely be the first choice to partner Lewies. Northmore has also
shown that he’s a very capable option at 13.
We may need to invest at centre if Lang is going though as I
think Tapuai and Campagnaro are almost certainly off.

Lang covers 10 doesn’t he. Who would when he’s gone.

Not really. He certainlycan play 10, but Gustard pretty much
always go for Herron at fly half in Smith's absence. Bizarre if
you ask me as Lang is a far better player than Herron.

Why would it be a straight choice between Lang and Stooke, the
play in different positions?!?! Im pretty sure we will have a
few ins and outs at the end of the season so doubt they are
dependant on each other (cap wise).
Im guessing we would be/are in the market for another 10. As
for Care staying, my worry would be another decent size contract
and him starting week in week out. I dont think he should be
automatic starter he seems to be.
I could also see Tapuai, Campagnero, Cavubatu and Landajo being
on their way. Plus a few more

I don’t think it is a straight choice between the two, but if it
is, I’d be happy with that swap.
I can see all of those you’ve listed moving on. Not sure what
the situation is with Garcia Botta, but if he’s off, I won’t be
too disappointed.
