Following the Moneyball discussion earlier in the season with Leicester, I can’t really knock them for wanting Jimmy. Wigglesworth and Ashton are working out and signings like Cronin and Cracknell are probably equally efficient.

Can’t blame Leicester for signing him but also can’t blame us for not offering him a two year deal.

Club legend, a true gent and now good luck to him and his family with the next chapter

2nd that, the 1st season we lost to Exeter in the final and jimmy had just started playing inside centre, I thought that was his best season for us, was absolutely brilliant. He has served the club extremely well and wish him all the best

Pierre Monteux, the first conductor of the Rite of Spring, with his luxuriant moustache and twinkling eyes, who insisted and signed a 25-year contract with the London Symphony Orchestra at the age of 86.

Just how long will Jimmy go on signing contracts?

Thank you so very very much to Jimmy and Jamma for everything they've done for Wasps.
Have I missed an announcement somewhere, has it been confirmed that Jamma is off? Would be a real loss as far as I’m concerned.

By the end of next season Tigers will be fielding a half back pair with a combined age of very nearly 80!
I played against Mill Hill Prop John Goldman, who was nearly that age on his own, and our front row had a combined age of 180! Mind you we had no aspirations to be elite players 🤣

Was Miller announced as leaving as well?

They were all given the Ivor Mortlake long service award, and, as Jimmy is off, I think 2+2=5 in the case of Gaskell and Miller., especially as there have been rumours about Gaskell

Miller is the  sort of player I would think Wasps would want to keep - can play well, not outstandingly, at both 10 and 15 and could easily slot in at 12. He also has a very good kick - in fact I would probably rate his kicking from the tee as up there with, or slightly better than, Jacob.

Apparently in talks with a Japanese club.
