    And it's all gone horribly wrong for Julian up north - Man oh man these French clubs just do not do their homework .....they just want to buy (emphasis on buy) themselves a whole heap of trouble instead.....

    LOL, after three years of being terrible, in 2017 I posted an AB squad that replaced him with Ioane, and most of you idiots said I was trolling.

    😆

    Regardless of how average he's playing, the Toulon owner just sounds like a pissed off toddler spitting the dummy.

    @Yeetyaah Julian has been crap for years, a couple of moments aside, but Mourad has been a fluffybunny for much longer

    Glad that Toulon are shite. Dislike their owner, dislike like their cheque book soccer-style approach. Hope they get regulated out of the Top 14.

    I seriously doubt that Bus is the source of all their problems, just a convenient scape goat.

    Jules should come back and play NPC or go to Japan.

    I suspect that it's Mrs Savea that has rocked the boat.
    She was tweeting really negative stuff from not long after arriving.

    Even an in form Jules would need a different style to that shit to shine.

    Well he's due for arguably even more pain if he's signed Milner Skudder for 3 years.

    Not long ago, I posted an article in the NH clubrugby thread about this man and his plans for Toulon; about how he wants to replace a lot of older players, especially imports from overseas with new, young players (NMS's signing is a bit odd in this light). Savea is far from the only one he wants to get rid of (Guilhem Guirado, Malakai Fekitoa and some others are already known to be leaving; others haven't been re-signed yet). This is just his way of trying to justify decicisions he's making to make that happen. I'm not saying Savea has been playing well, but it all says more about that ***hole Boudjellal than about Savea.

    He's certainly not an astute rugby investor. Makes you wonder how he made money.

    @sparky kinda knew all that, think @Crucial was asking how he made so much money despite appearing to be a numpty when it comes to making business decisions for his rugby team.

    Julian had been a long way form his best well before his one good game in 2015.

    He isn't the first and won't be the last uber rich owner who tries his hand at building a trophy winning pro sports team and fails miserably. Just ask the fans of Blackburn Rovers, the Cleveland Browns, and the New York Knicks

    Anyone on this site could have told him Savea would be a bust. Perhaps he could pay us a retainer and we can vet any future purchases of NZ players?

    @canefan my guess is those on this site would have encouraged him to take Savea, earlier, and NMS, earlier 😉

    He could just join the Fern and get his advice for free!!

    While NMS is yet to capture his spark of the last WC he's on a different level to Savea around training and being a professional. Savea has struggled to get properly fit at both super and AB levels before, which used to infuriate me no end, especially for the canes. No doubt some of that can come down to environment et, but there is no way I'd have signed Savea for big money.

    NMS will be a very good north Hemisphere fullback. Strong aerial skills, doesn't miss many tackles, good kicking game, scores a few tries.
