Toulon With More Signings

Toulon are moving to cover the losses in their squad for the Rugby World Cup by signing Sireli Bobo and chasing Tom Taylor, according to reports.

Bobo, 39, most recently turned out for La Rochelle and joins as a joker in place of Bryan Habana and Drew Mitchell.

Taylor had been set to join Bayonne but the club’s relegation means his deal has been cancelled with the All Blacks fly-half now a free agent.

La Provence allege that deals to bring in Melbourne Rebels back Mike Harris and Chiefs centre Andrew Horrell have both fallen through for Toulon, with Taylor now coming to their attention.

Taylor could possibly be a long-term signing for Toulon who are in need of a fly-half after Quade Cooper’s decision to stay in Australia.
