The Premiership needs another team and they want Worcester. They will make it happen.

You can of course pad that with loans and dual registered players.
I think you will do well.


Top 6, but Worcester will make that.

I can't see Worcester not being Top 3 or 2. (With respect to Cov, Knights and Bedford)

Too many good signings. Too many powerful forwards and good half backs.

The argument about the squad taking time to blend doesn't stack up. Too many experienced Pros in there.

The question for me is whether they have the squad to be as consistent as Ealing.

There was enough evidence for them to be fast tracked into the Championship!

The only reason the defaulters were fast tracked was solely based upon their ground facilities. Otherwise Ealing would be plying their trade in the Premiership 2 seasons ago. The Cartel have clear ground rules to protect the chosen ones. 

Let’s not all become delusional about the quality of the squad before a ball has been passed. Yes they will be full time which will automatically place them in the top half of the table, together with a core of seasoned professionals. They are odds on to finish in the top 3, unless their coaching staff bomb it as they are completely untested at level 2 rugby. 
Watch Out - The Scottish Phoenix Club is on the Up!!

Seven down one to go
