Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: Jack and Tom Willis: the brothers who became team-mates ? and now Top 14 rivals

The highlights were ropey but it appeared to be a 'proper' game with both Willis's looking good.
I think Tom's game would have improved by staying in France.

Great article. The Willis's come across as a lovely family.
I would love to see Jack and Tom play together for England.

Many Tigers fans are moaning their team were playing pretty much the Irish national XV when, in reality, the overwhelming majority are local lads who have gone through their Academy system.
There is no reliance on expensive galacticos and their few overseas signings (eg Lowe, Gibson-Park) were pretty much unheard of before moving to Leinster. Since then they have been expertly coached and subsequently developed into international players.
The Leinster model should be applauded and copied.

Dan has his training kit on and appears to be in his Warwickshire home.

Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: England today
« on: March 12, 2023, 06:52:40 PM »Having seen Ireland win vs a more than decent Scotland....I'm rather concerned about England going to Dublin.....
Ireland appear to have a significant injury list to contend with. England might just get lucky.

Big blow for those Waspies wishing the Academy players might stick around to be picked up by Wasps 2.
Reuben is a real talent who will hopefully develop into a quality senior player. Best wishes to him.

Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: From the WW Forum - Wasps info
« on: February 19, 2023, 11:18:06 AM »Am I the only one who thinks our new owners aren't being entirely open, transparent and honest about this process?They have said as much as Derek has.
It's easy to blame Atlas after their recent behaviour, but we have literally no idea what is going on at Wasps. I am not willing to give them my complete unwavering trust just because they bought a brand.
Derek isn't trying to revive a dead rugby club that is absolutely reliant on fan support to stand any chance of success.
Also have you considered that he might be staying quiet in order to not cause any bad feeling that may damage the chances of any future club? Let's imagine that there were serious fallings out before the end, and that some of the people on the other side of the argument are still involved. How would a former owner detailing that help the new club?
Derek has lost truly mind-blowing amounts of money in this and if he is at fault it is simply for not being a bottomless pit of cash for other people to take.

TRP suggests Tim Cardall will join Newcastle Falcons upon expiry of his Melbourne contract.
