The final whistle for the Cup finals at Yio Chu Kang Stadium last saturday marked the end of this year's SRU National Rugby Championships. It also represents that the transfer window is officially open at 1900hrs (GMT +0800). While players return to their respective schools to prepare for their upcoming school campaigns, several high profilers have already been linked with moves to other clubs.

Stormy Normy

NTU's number 1 prop, Stormy Normy has been strongly linked to league and cup winners Bedok Kings throughout the season. Back in early July, he showed up at Bedok's training ground for a 2-weeks trial stint and was hugely impressive. Stormy then surprised both pundits and his fans by signing a 1 season contract extension with SRC. With the end of the season, speculations arose, strongly linking Stormy to Bedok Kings again. He was seen sitting with Bedok supporters during the cup final and also hanging out with Bedok players at their post match function. An eye witness claimed that he saw Stormy boarding the Bedok's Team Bus.
His agent commented - " Norman is busy preparing for his exams and school training. He will decide his future within the next few weeks"

Emery "Sub 10" Ong

The Speedster from Nanyang Avenue is also linked to Bedok Kings after being spotted with Stormy at a Bedok Kings post match function. Although the move the highly unlikely as Emery had just signed a 3-year contract with SRC, his fellow NTU teammates at Bedok expressed their delight at the possibility of him signing for Bedok.
"His speed is very deadly and it would be great playing with him.He did well this season! The number of tries he scored for SRC this season may be the club's record highest number of tries scored by a rookie"
His transfer may be hindered by recent news of the speedster getting infected with "Dota-litis". Doctors say that he is showing early signs of the disease but nothing is certain as of now.

Starlets Kevin "Salsa King" Ang & Gabriel "Gay Stickman" Loi

After a successful trial session with Champions - Bedok Kings. Both players has been offered a 3-yr contract starting next season. When contacted, Salsa king was busy trying to fight the 'Dota-litis' disease by distracting himself with a new programme known as "Football Manager 2007". But there are rumours that Salsa King is currently considering a change of position from his regular "In center" to a Flanker.
As for Gay Stickman, he could only reply with "huh err err i want to get bigger la.."


Tri-University Championship Updates
Transfer speculations for Mark "Mr Biceps" Lee continues as latest rumours say that Mr Biceps is signing a contract with NTU in January 2007 after accepting the school's offer for a Masters program in communications. The thought of him teamming up with his national/club teammate Rebel Rong in NTU colors would simply scare all oppositions.

Hottest News
NUS Prop/Sausage seller - Mark "Tightfit T-shirt" Koh has also been linked to NTU. Speculations started after the recent NUS 7s where he was seen preparing hotdogs and showed reluctance to play against either of the NTU sides.
However, it could also be a false alarm. Koh may just be linked to NTU because he is one of main bidders for the hotdog stall in NTU Canteen 2.
