That's Finn Russell + Aaron Cruden arriving in southern France, while Frans Steyn is still there on the roster...
French sources (Midol). Vern Cotter, obviously playing a major role in convincing him to come over.

Why on earth (bar the money) has he done that?

He hasn't. It has been reported by someone but everyone else is denying it.

FWIW word is that Frans Steyn is leaving Montpellier

still a strange move given Cruden is there though

lol. But big big major money, Vern Cotter, the guarantee of being on a loaded+WELL COACHED side that'll be going places. Much better than current club situation for sure. Glamor, fame blablah. South of France. Possibly bored with gloomy old Scotland, wanting to prove sth to the world, operate a big change in his life and young career ?

Will be a blow for Pro 12 to lose a player of this quality
