Unfortunately, I believe he has based on his statement that he signed, and hopped on a plane immediately. Also what it says on WF twitter. Heard rumors that he was very unhappy about the lack of promotion.

Tizzano must be the most prolific Try scorer for minutes played to Try ratio I have ever seen or heard of. Can you find exactly how many minutes he came on the field for ?. He spent far too much time on the bench.
I think other players will leave without the opportunity of Premiership Rugby.

You can't really blame them. I'm sure they signed with that promise in mind.

Why was Tizzano not the starting 7 all season? He's been quality for ET. Has been injured post-Xmas?
A rapid departure like that might suggests personal reasons, or he just wants more games before the off season as they're only 2 months into their season over there!

Leatigaga has left Tigers to go in the same direction and circumstances, injury cover was quoted as the reason.

Tizzano was player of the season for me, I can understand the dissatisfaction at no promotion but to not finish the season especially the Jersey clash is poor form. I suspect that was probably why he wasn’t being picked recently (same for some other high profile omissions?).
Also I suspect it means that the Ospreys rumours were nothing more than a negotiation tactic for the welsh region with the WRFU.

I wonder if this depends on a couple of things happening: 1 If Ealing beat Jersey tomorrow and if they then win their final game of the season and therefore are crowned the winners of this year's Championship. 2 Ealing are then allowed promotion to the Premiership next season. Some big ifs in there. But I have been encouraged today to read that the RFU Council have announced that one club will definitely be relegated from the Championship this season. Perhaps they can now confirm whether Ealing or Jersey can be promoted, and whether Wasps are playing in the Championship next season. Come on, RFU Council, break a leg and provide some clarification, preferably before the new season starts. |

Cherub. (don't shoot the messenger!) - there was clarity on this a few weeks ago, it's the Prem's decision, not the RFU's, about who comes up & it was determined that only Donny's ground passed the audit; Ealing's didn't pass and no other clubs applied. Don't believe there's been any proposal on this matter for the RFU Council, therefore can't see any possibility that it will change. Ealing & Jersey have at least known the score for some weeks, unlikely the 2 teams at the bottom, who knew relegation about 2 hours ago!

Tomi Lewis heading back to Scarlets Confirmation that Tomi Lewis will soon be heading back to

Do Ealing have any income, or is it just a wealthy benefactor? kinda fearing another potential collapse in the making here.
