Cape Town - French Top 14 club Toulouse are reportedly eager to attain the services of Springboks Frans Malherbe and Siya Kolisi.

French rugby newspaper Midi Olympique reports that the Stormers duo are on the shop-list of the French giants who want to bolster their ranks after this year's Rugby World Cup.

Prop Malherbe has played four Tests for the Boks, while flank Kolisi boasts 10 caps.

This follows the recent announcement that Stormers flyhalf Demetri Catrakilis will join Jake White's Montpellier later this year.

While the interest in the Stormers players appears to be high, their coaches are also believed to be in high demand (Cant think why!!!).

Netwerk24 earlier reported that head coach Allister Coetzee is in high demand in Japan, forwards coach Matthew Proudfoot is linked with a coaching job in Argentina and Vodacom Cup and Under-21 coach John Dobson wanted by the EP Kings.(Well northging too prestigiosu in all this)


Man this is all very annoying!

 I will have  chat with Frans Malhelbe's father about this one and come back with the latest news.   Not sure whether Frans will sign with them at this stage - he is very close to his family and that would be a serious consideration.   He might go if Etzebeth goes - they are best friends and if Etzebeth stays with the Stormers - so will Frans.

 They should keep Dobson in Cape Town. Good coach. Proudfoot did well with the pack, but Small will make sure the forwards are well coached if Proudfoot should leave.

 As promised I phoned Frans' mother today.  Her comments were that people should not believe everything written in newspapers.   Frans has not mentioned anything to them and he surely would if there was any substance in the story.   In view of the massive salaries paid by French clubs they would not try to stop him if anything really materializes.   
At present there is no substance to the story - so lets wait and see what happens.  
Frans is fully recovered - but not really matchfit as yet.   He is likely to play from Round 3 of Super 15.

 Thanks Mike. 
Malherbe is very important to our cause. Quite liked the pace one saw from Koch and Kebble when they played against Sarries. Nice back ups to Kitshof and Malherbe.
