THE end of the Gallagher Premiership season is upon us and as ever clubs have had mixed luck with transfers.
The 2021-22 campaign is drawing to its conclusion ahead of what will be a thrilling final between Leicester Tigers and Saracens.

Here, RUCK reporters nominate their best and worst transfer from the last 12 or so months…
#BEST SIGNINGS:
#3. Elliot Stooke (Wasps)
The 28-year-old impressed in a Bath shirt for a number of years before joining Wasps last summer. Despite a serious injury towards the end of the season, Stooke proved that he has what it takes to be a key player for the black and golds for years to come.

- Age: 28
- Position: Lock/Flanker
A year ago, few had heard of the Samoan forward but he is now starting to become a household name in the English Premiership following a series of stunning performances for Saracens. The former basketball player, who signed from Major League Rugby side the Dallas Jackals, can feature at either lock or back-row and he has all the skills to be a world-class forward.
