The GIF doesn't appear to be related to any player? Unless I am not seeing a resemblance in any player to Griffin from Family Guy...Twitter noise seems to think it is Watson.
It was fine when I left it.....

It's Marcus. I'm very pleased. He's struggled with injury and come through it. Well deserved.

I have been a critic but he has improved and I am glad we are giving him a chance. COYW.....

Fantastic news, think it’s been quite clear that he wants to stay and was definitely playing for a new contract. His form has been great recently and has stayed injury free so hopefully we’ll see him carry this on for the rest of the season and beyond

He made Jonah Holmes look a bit stupid for his first try at Welford Road.

If he stays fit and plays like he has recently it is a welcome signing.
Let me tell you something cucumber

11 tries in 24 appearances, that's quite a strike rate. Particularly as he won't have been playing the full 80 in the games.

Basset nor Daly would have scored the last couple of tries, that alone tells me he deserves a shot.

Very happy with this re-signing. He's certaily taken his chances and scored some nice tries in a team struggling in attack. So for that, he deserves to be given more chances next season.

6 weeks ago, I'd not have been particularly bothered about this news, and would have felt that it was ok providing the contract was right for Wasps.

Now, however, I think that he's shown that he has a lot to offer Wasps. Depending on other signings, he may not be first choice next season or even on the bench, but anyone playing on the wings will know that he's pushing them for the shirt..... and that can only benefit us.
