REPORT: Another international is set to depart Exeter Chiefs this summer

According to leading French newspaper Midi Olympique, it's been reported that Bernard Laporte’s team has finalised an agreement to acquire Abuladze, known for his prowess in the scrum.

Abuladze, who only arrived at Sandy Park in March 2023 from RC Kochebi, has quickly caught the attention of Montpellier since his debut against them in April 2023, despite his season being cut short by a knee injury after just 16 appearances for the Chiefs.

The departure of Abuladze adds to a trend of key players leaving Exeter for France in recent times. Montpellier has already secured the signatures of notable Chiefs players like number eight Sam Simmonds and tighthead prop Harry Williams during the previous summer.

Th club also announced the immediate departure of Scotland international Jonny Gray, who is widely expected to sign with French side Bordeaux-Begles.

The Wallabies are facing potential centre dilemmas as Hunter Paisami, a pivotal player, contemplates a shift to the Gallagher Premiership, escalating concerns for Australian rugby.

Reported by The Roar, the 26-year-old Paisami is seriously contemplating a transfer to Exeter, with the English club, led by Rob Baxter, presenting an enticing proposal to snatch the experienced 26-Test Wallaby from Ballymore.

Commenting on the 2025 Guinness Six Nations fixtures, Tom Harrison, CEO of Six Nations Rugby, said:

“The Guinness Men’s Six Nations is an appointment to view each year, delivering blockbuster entertainment for fans all over the world. The Championship never fails to deliver unpredictable excitement and experiences for fans to look forward to and then savour.

"The announcement of the next instalment of fixtures is always keenly anticipated by fans, and with tickets now available for the 2025 fixtures, coupled with extensive broadcast coverage of the games, fans can already begin looking forward to what is in store as the action for the remaining rounds of this year's Championship plays out."

Groundbreaking AI technology has unveiled its jaw-dropping forecasts for the next two decades of Six Nations glory, and the results are nothing short of mind-blowing.

According to the cutting-edge predictions, England is poised to clinch victory in a staggering five out of the next 20 tournaments, while Scotland is primed for a historic triumph, marking their first title since their Five Nations conquest in 1999.

However, the road ahead seems daunting for Wales, as the AI oracle forecasts a prolonged wait until 2041 for their next taste of Six Nations glory.

Meanwhile, traditional powerhouses such as England, Ireland, and France are slated to dominate the competition, casting a shadow over Welsh aspirations.
