London Wasps Fixture Moved


Will he be free?

Due to London Wasps making the Parker Pen Challenge Cup semi-final their Zurich Premiership home fixture against the Newcastle Falcons, scheduled for Sunday 27 April, will now take place on Saturday 1st March, Kick-off 3pm. As neither Newcastle Falcons or London Wasps are still involved in the Powergen Cup the match will be played on the same weekend as the Powergen Cup semi-finals.

    The weekend of March 1st also happens to be the week off in the middle of the Six Nations, so will Jonny Wilkinson be available?
      England play Wales on Saturday February 22nd and Italy a fortnight later on Sunday March 8th. The Six Nations tournament was changed to a block format this year from the disjointed one week with England then one week back with the clubs format in order to get some continuity.
        Hopefully Clive Woodward will be releasing all his squad back to their clubs, not just those involved in the Powergen Cup matches scheduled for that weekend.
