Predicting whether this summer’s big Premiership signings will flop or not

Based on not much more than a hunch, here are my predictions on whether the most notable Gallagher Premiership signings will flop or not.

#1. Mike Brown (Newcastle Falcons)

Everything about this addition suggests flop. With Brown now 36, his recent disciplinary record and various injuries in recent years suggest this a bit of a risky signing by Dean Richards.

Verdict: Not flop
