Allowing for a slight exaggeration on our behalf, Gavin Henson will soon join the 9805th club of his professional career with the former Welsh international near to joining high spending Championship outfit Bristol.
Initially, Henson had to agree to join Bristol-who are coached by his former Ospreys coach, Sean Holley- next season but talks to see Henson join this season are believed to be at an advanced stage.
“We’ve signed Gavin for next season – but the whole aim was to try to get him to play a part in this season,” Holley confirmed at Bristol’s weekly media briefing.
“It would be absolutely fantastic if we could secure his services at this time of year – what an acquisition he would be.
“He’d certainly light up the Championship and Ashton Gate – he’s a tremendous player and one I have a lot of time for: huge talent, presence, skill, aura”, said Holley.
