I posted the list on the Sarries board and them seem to have not been able to see the (rubbish) attempt at making light of the whole thing, so I've let it go!

To be fair to Sarries though Wasps then took over and had Taylor and Gaskell, whilst Foden's scrum half delusion means you can't really class what Saints did as stealing, even if they did know full well they were going to put him at full back too.
Both of those clubs had a field day few years on poaching Sale players - for Wasps in addition to Taylor and Gaskell, there was also Chris Bell, Miller, McIntyre and Odogwu, and that's just the current squad!

For Saints, when Jim Mallinder joined them, he did a wholesale ransacking of Sale taking Lobbe Snr, Barry Stewart, Christian Day, Chris Mayor and Ben Foden (and Nick Johnson from the back room) and subsequently Luther Burrell and Alex Mitchell amongst others
Not sure you could accuse Wasps of 'stealing' Odogwu from us? When he went, he was at the back of a longish queue of much better wingers so a move made sense for both him and the club

They did steal Cipriani though........!!

Didn't Sale have a habit of raiding Newcastle though? Which is where Miller came from, didn't he? And Tait. Maybe that's it, but I thought there were more
