I hope the reality of how hard it is going to be isn't a surprise to him!
IMO I don't think he'll make it, but he hasn't failed yet.

He does have an Instagram account. He seems to train with the others without any issue, he certainly doesn't appear to be injured. I guess he just isn't looking good enough in training.

The bit about him wanting to go to Sarries so he could be with his good friend Jamie George, ignoring that he'd then be leaving his very close friend Dan Robson behind at Wasps, was also amusing.

As I doubt anyone on here, or in the press, will have actually seen his contract, I would guess its all speculation.
However there was talk when Launchbury & Daly re-signed that they were promised that "Wasps would be continuing to sign world class players" That, like any potential Training ground clause, sounds vague enough that a decent lawyer could argue it hadn't been fulfilled, or had, depending on what their client wanted. '
At the end of the day, if a player wants to leave, whether his contract is up or not, its pretty pointless to try and keep them. They won't be giving 100% on the pitch, may be a morale problem in the team & could be wasting a decent wage which could be better used elsewhere.
If a player really wants to go, then unless you want a massive squabble, you're better off sucking it up and moving on.

Its just repeating stuff thats been rumoured on here. Whether you like the paper concerned or not, them not reporting it, doesn't make it go away. Equally them reporting it doesnt make it any more or less likely to to come true either
Do you seriously think that the Mail reporting it will influence Elliot to leave?

How exactly is this "interference"? They are just reporting the rumours & gossip they get told.
The never heard the phrase "Don't shoot the messenger"?
