    We Need To Talk About Wasps

    https://www.wasps.co.uk/club-announcements/our-journey-update/ Looks like Core Sustainable Finance and Stadium are done, just in discussions with the leagues. Waiting for Pledge button to work but fingers crossed it starts working. I know we may not deserve it but for all the fans i hope we...

    2023-2024 transfers

    Singleton to Toulon also done as medical joker. Could see this becoming Perm as well. Big money for a player fliting with England duty. Agreed big money and advantages of a top league with huge amounts of fans and full paved facilities. Can't blame them.

    Transfers rumours

    True... its more linked to marketability for me. Hes a true star factor in Falcons backline so from purely that sense i reckon he's a serious loss.

    Transfers rumours

    Maybe... i think we will see more go for sure. Think Sinckler isn't too much for a loss for Bristol but for Saints and Falcons respectively, two huge losses. The leadership of Ludlham and Ribbans both going could significantly impact Saints whilst Carreras going is a huge draw and quality for...

    Transfers rumours

    Rumours coming out that Lewis Ludlham and Kyle Sinckler have both signed for Toulon from next season as well as Matteo Carreras to Bayonne. Exodus will continue i am sure.

    Academy player draft?

    So i actually really like a draft system and think it works really well in the US. However, there league has had vast amount of time to adjust to it and make it work. Plus their colleges are as big/if not bigger than their teams so players are virtually superstars already before turning "Pro"...

    Transfers rumours

    Firstly, all I get that Steve Lansdown is a seriously wealthy bloke but he did say earlier this year he was open to selling the whole package incl. the bears so that untapped cash pot may vanish. https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/lansdown-bristol-bears-city-sale-8225198 I will also...

    England World Cup Squad

    He's only 32 tbf, unless we are talking next WC cycle then yeah i get that. Samoa are gonna look completely different by the next world cup as this was probably their big shot. Ala'alatoa will be 36, Faumuina will be 40, Mcfarland 32, Vui 34, Luatua 36, Fritz Lee 39, Lam 36, Sopogaga 36...

    England World Cup Squad

    I actually disagree that Samoa need Umaga, unless they play him at fullback and play Sopoaga at fly half

    We Need To Talk About Wasps

    Kenny Logan was also on BBC Hereford and Worcester. Worth a listen, spoke about the complications we face. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0gnjxj2 Spoke about aiming for this year but back up of 25-26 season, about using Wuss facilities to keep them going/fantastic facilities and that no...

    England World Cup Squad

    @BPM assuming you watched the game on Sunday, I thought Northmore (until Injury) & Murley looked v.good. Baxter for me shows promise as LHP option for 3rd squad spot and Launchbury looked dominant for a long time return. Dombs was v.good but up against it with Mercer/Pearson/T Willis. Evans &...

    England World Cup Squad

    Yeah Kpoku is one who has slipped away and probably would have been a good stop gap with Isiekwe. Interesting thing is when you consider the players likely to drop out via France/Retire... i would consider them in 5 groups (Star, First Team, Bench, Squad players, one for the future) Seeing as...

    England World Cup Squad

    So reviewing the squad i think we see a fair amount of upheaval and players to drop out/head to France. Forwards Dan Cole (Retire?) Joe Marler (Retire?) Will Stuart Ellis Genge Kyle Sinckler (France - Ineligibe?) Bevan Rodd Jamie George Theo Dan Jack Walker George Martin Courtney Lawes...

    We Need To Talk About Wasps

    I hope we stick to our word of helping Worcester and them returning to being a playing club. We seem to have the right people involved with the club and driving forward. The biggest concern is the competition for me. The RFU didn't do much for us in terms of convincing our investors and we...

    We Need To Talk About Wasps

    I mean, it makes me feel positive. It sounds like the strive will be to play in Kent if possible sooner but use Wuss if needs be. They do say "Agreed an option of utilising Worcester Warriors 6ways for training and playing purposes, without anyway replacing WW RFC and indeed committed to...

    Premiership Rugby 23/24 - Rd 2

    Yes its an interesting way of framing the "competition". Maybe that is the route back, however it sounds like we aren't 100% " One that is fit for purpose and reflects the values that WASPS and others adhere to. We are pursuing all options in this regard". Interesting that we seem to have a...

    Great decision... not. If there was additional interviews, content etc then it might get close to justifying but complete rip off
