All the very best Andrea. I will never forget your tackle on Sinoti Sinoti at Budgies. One Sinoti went north and the other sinoti went south. Thanks for everything.

Was looking at  some highlights of games on Monday, weren’t meant to be about him but noticed how much he featured in the clips

Good luck to Andrea.

He has been part of a successful academy team that has developed some diamonds.

Good luck to him, awesome servant to the club. Shame to lose our longest running Italian connection. Hopefully we can still benefit a bit from him though.

As has been mentioned, maybe opens up an opportunity for Gopps?

Grazie mille, Andrea! Been a major part of our success, both on the field and then in charge of our Academy

Bitter sweet. A true Wasps through and through.

Influential as a player and a role model as a coach. He will leave a lasting impression on both fronts. That’s a legacy very few players can achieve.

Grazie Masi and the best of luck in Italy.

Shame to lose him.  The Treviso move could well be a stepping stone to a future role with the national team.  He's had great success with Wasps academy, and is very well respected as a coach.  Was outstanding for us as a player too.  Good luck Andrea, and thanks for all you've done for Wasps.

A real shame to see him go, but don't really blame him all things considered.

He produced on of my favourite moments, lofting a kick almost into orbit and then sprinting the length of the field to flatten Waldrom when he caught it.

Thanks for everything Andrea. #waspslegend

So sorry that he is leaving; he has done so much for Wasps both as a player and a coach.  We owe him a lot. Always a joy and a delight to watch , elegant and utterly ruthless.  Good luck, thank you,  much happiness and good fortune in everything.  Arrivedeci Senor Cool.

Maybe as the eventual replacement?

This is a consequence of being successful... Eventually your coaches start to look attractive to other clubs and they themselves feel that another challenge with increased responsibility is an option.


Loved him as a player, loved him as a man, as an academy coach and as a fashion model.

I wish him all the luck in the world
